To have a fresh start
embrace a future of hope
he said one word -- Yes
~~~
To escape a life
of pain and degradation
she said one word -- No
~~~
To build a world where
one plus one can equal one
they said one word -- Love

All very nice, but the third one - ah, it's just that simple!!
love means knowing when to say yes! and no.. very important. nicely done!
Floreta took the words right out of my thoughts ... so I can't say it better. Except, it's all down hill after one say "I do".
Ya..love is a sacrifice..this was nice
Now this is a complete Haiku. Nice one
Liked the haiku series!
I always like your 5-7-5 haiku. Hey not that there is anything sacred about 5-7-5. Especially in English.
But just like the one-syllable writing game I sometimes play, the limits make it more interesting.
Your distributive interpretation of "one word" is clever. Though as you know, my crabby side's never partial to the love trope - but please ignore my usual Eeyorism and pat yourself on the forearm for a job well done ;)
Oh, this is a great little series!
Yes-No-Love
we must all have to capacity to word it!
Lovely!
I agree with everyone else. This is an excellent series of poems.
Nice that love had the final word!
..really good..
many thanks indeed..
I love the progression of pronouns: he, she, they.
Beautifully done, H.T.!
High praise from KiteHorse, by the way!
These were great. Thanks.

Addition's not real;
Apples and souls do not sum:
Our minds are so caged
