His 4

A Haiku

By Nikki Torino WagnerPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

One, of my sisters,

is a steadfast believer.

Another thoughtful.

Baby questioning.

Me, the designated witch.

Yet, us four, combined-

Fire. Earth. Water. Air.

Our father, spirit, coaxing,

“the stars always win.”

Keep our eyes above.

Gather and sit below them-

Be quick, make a wish!
