UC Clermont's Haiku Contest

 Life where none should be

Pushing through the concrete crack. Blossoming flower.

 Dark was the long night

Cold was the spotted pavement

Beneath the gardens

my weight, i fall cold and near

the edge of my life

Light in the window

Smoke rolling from the chimney

I know I am home

The slow rising fire

Called out to me in the night

It knows my secrets
