My Summer Vacation

These linked haikus are variations on the same theme of the price of what we deem "success". Last summer, before the pandemic, was one of the most productive and rewarding of my career professionally speaking. The unanswered question I am still struggling with is, was it all worth it?

Book Excerpt

Echoes of Dawn at Dusk: Collected Poems (Volume 2)

My Summer Vacation

Two textbooks finished,
Two instructor's manuals,
Two test banks as well.

Two papers on law,
Submitted to two journals,
Soon to be published.

A new appointment,
As Distinguished Professor,
Welcomed news as well.

Research conducted,
For a new course developed,
(Immigration Law).

But all at a price:
Not enough time with my wife,
No real vacation.

All friends far away,
The same true of family,
Parents in heaven.

Nose pressed to grind stone,
The sands of time drift away,
Is this all there is?
