Now is not enough.

He Chose to Chance the Rapids
“You were his favorite uncle, you know.” My sister's words, like an ice pick, plunged straight to my heart. It wasn't her fault; she had meant to make me feel better. On that day, sitting there with my siblings, the surge of emotion was too much to hold back, especially after the stress of the past 48 hours. I couldn't respond, for fear that the dam would break.

Spot on! Love this, Heather 💕🙂
It's never enough time, my friend. Excellent piece.
Excellent!!! Loved it 💕💖
I don’t know why we are like that. Now is never enough. Great job 👏
Never enough! If only there were 30 hours in the day...I would probably spend the extra 6 sleeping lol. Well, 3 sleeping and 3 writing. That's better. Great Haiku, Heather.
Great work, packs an emotional punch!
Amazing!
