Haiku on Test/ Unite/ Vital

Test

Tester or testee
A power differential
Could tester fail test?

All students tested
End of academic year
You signed on for this

Life is a challenge
Each milestone can test your strengths
And perseverance

Unite

If all world profits
Were pooled and shared equally
Would humans unite?

The oesophagus
At the cardiac sphincter
Unites with stomach

Across all the world
It is grief that comes from loss
That unites humans

After night's losses
Mourning can unite us all
Leaving yesterday

Vital

Having been mothered
A vital ingredient
Caring for a child

To be young again
Living with vitality
No care in the world

Kicked in the vitals
Again I fall to the floor
Poor Karate blocks
