Know I Loved You Today

is a deeply personal collection of Kenneth Francis Pearson's haiku and free verse reflecting on loss and commemoration. The concise haiku find solace through images from the natural world - the cycles of seasons, fading flowers, the rising and setting sun. Brief glimpses resonate with memories and the endurance of love in the wake of tragedy. Longer verses expand on themes of grief, mortality and consolation. Together the poems offer resilience through accepting life's fragility and finding hope in the endurance of the spirit. For readers processing loss, this reflective collection provides gentle solace through relatable explorations of remembrance, healing and the comforting power of nature.
