Sonia Sanchez morning haiku
“Let me wear the day
Well so when it reaches you
You will enjoy it.”
~Sonia wrote that Haiku poem for her children after realizing that due to time zone changes, she was living her days in advance of theirs. It works first on a literal level with that helpful back story–Sonia the loving mama speaks to her children. But, like all good haiku poems, it keeps sending out ripples of meaning far beyond the literal.
