My chest sliced open
My family prayed--his wept.
In death he gave life.

This haiku is about my liver transplant experience. I will be eternally grateful to the sweet soul who was my donor.

Thanks to the kind folks in the Poetry Workshop at The Writer's Block who gave me their support and suggestions.
