Remembering the London Bombings

Remembering the London Bombings

Today is the one year anniversary of the July 7 bombings in London. I came across these award-winning haiku commemorating the London bombings. While I do not normally post something like this, I thought you might find them appropriate for the occasion:




sounds of war:
the morning apple
tastes bitter


Carlos Fleitas, UY


Blasts in London—
a pigeon flies from smoke
with blackened wings


Zhanna P. Rader, US


soot and blood cover
Londoner’s dead
death too of peace


Victor P. Gendrano, US


at King’s Cross,
the sky empty of birds—
wet pavements


Denis Garrison, US
