823 - Three Haikus

Three Word Wednesday requires participants
to use the three words of the week in a composition.
The words this week were: fatal, glimmer, impartial.




Shielded from the truth,
A photo reaches our heart—
A glimmer of hope.




People in distress,
Good time to be impartial—
Everyone matters.




Assumes people heartless,
Tries to instill fear in them—
A fatal mistake.

  1. Assumes people stupid,
    and self-interested,
    Hopefully a fatal mistake.

    This is interesting. One cannot pass judgement. It might create unnecessary problems

  7. It is said people get the governments they deserve. This cannot be the case for no country could ever deserve a government led by our current prime minister.

  13. "Everyone matters." That is the simple truth. The refugee situation will separate the caring and the heartless, for certain.
