The prompt this Friday on Haiku Heights is Egg. In my country, when one gives birth we sometimes use euphemism to break the news. ‘The bottle/gourd is broken’, ‘the egg has cracked’ are some of the euphemisms used. My offering today is based on ‘the egg has cracked’. Please enjoy.
Egg
Gentle crack eases
Glorious bundles to being
The beauty of birth
