802-806

I am grateful to the website HaikuHorizons, which posts a haiku prompt every Sunday. Today's word is "brush."

----------------------------

Handled implements
used to groom, to paint, to cleanse:
brushes of our lives

A soft gentle brush
such a slight and fleeting touch
against me, briefly

Our souls are brushes
and our bodies are the paint,
the world our canvas

A pen is a brush with 
with just one point and just one ink
we paint with our words

I remember her,
how she drew trees that looked like
they were brushing their hair
