Each week author Ronovan Hester invites interested readers to participate in a Haiku Prompt Challenge. This week he provided the words nightmare and horror. I'm a novice at this art form, but I'm intrigued enough to attempt this simple verse. ​If you have interest, please click on the link above, where you'll find detailed instructions.

​I've entitled this poem, ​LOVE'S EMBRACE.

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way. ―Viktor E. Frankl, Man’s Search for Meaning
