It is amazing that you are able to tell such a complete story in such a short poem of the impact on a small boy's life of his father's death. Delicate, moving, and subtle.

Ancient mysteries by: Anonymous
What a beautiful haiku. I love the feeling of silence at the heart of the poem, of deep water and ancient mysteries.
