    Beautifully written Haiku, Miss Thang. I've missed that amazing brain of yours. I just needed a mental break. Been VERY busy as of late. Life gets in the way as you know. Apologies and thank you for the concern. :-)

      Been worried about you, so glad you’re back with some tortillas. Take care my friend.

    Wow, this poem is truly heartwarming and beautifully written! I love the vulnerability and honesty expressed in the words. The line "Will you show some grace?" is especially powerful and really hits home.

    As for improvement suggestions, I would recommend maybe playing around with the structure and format a bit. Perhaps adding some stanzas or varying the line lengths could add some extra depth and poetic flair. But overall, this is a fantastic piece of writing and I hope to read more from you in the future!
