Haiku on Double/ Place/ Struggle/ Left

Double

Not sure why I'm here
Saw this double decker bus
And came for the ride

Double decker bus
Iconic symbol in red
Spirit of London

Cello sits forlorn
Slightly grumpy and twisted
Double base envy

Place

Establishment place
Please place my plaice in my place
Yes, on the placemat

Accept refugees
Stop radicalisation
Make our place humane

We need each other
In that basic loving way
So, my place or yours

Struggle

The old baritone
Still able to sing in tune
Struggles with high notes

If you can struggle
With time it makes you able
To struggle some more

The struggle for peace
Continues throughout our world
Where we are able

Left

New karate class
Punch left fist stomach level
No! The other left

Leftovers for tea
The most sumptuous salad
Reduced to two leaves

Writing on the wall
Left for the future to read
Humanity is lost
