Yes, he got another day to enjoy this life though painful. A truth so nicely described.
Here to read your new haiku... Life is not without pains and discomfort, but it's still worth living so long as we have something/someone to love.
Inspite of body pains an oldman remains happy due to his meditation to God. This theme is nicely capsulized in tiny poem. Wise work. Thanks for sharing.

This poem tells me about my father, recently widowed with the demise of my mom. Is he happy, do you think? Or would he rather join my mom? I don't know which could have been easier, that he had gone first before my mom. This poem assures me that it's fortunate for anyone to just to wake up every morning and still feel life. But for what?
Well, that's an answer only he can give. Pain is always there but life remains sweet. At least that's the way I see it.
