Waiting at a corner of the room (a Senryū) Go, go look after your siblings and the cafe Pa's waiting for me. This Senryū is about a mother telling her children to go home. She reminded them to look after their younger siblings and their coffee shop. This lady pointed to her late husband waiting at a corner of the ICU room.
Quotes:
- “Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.” – Buddha
- “No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet, death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it, and that is how it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It’s life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new.” – Steve Jobs
