Haiku and Post Design – Journal Notes Blog

blue sky

blue sky
and clouds
snowdrops

home from the store
Queen Anne’s Lace
by fields of corn

morning prayer
water birds flying north
stay close to water

My haiku was first published in SMILE, 67, 2010.

And published in Take-out Window: Haiku Society of America 2014 Members’ Anthology, edited by Gary Hotham.

Previous posts in my new Lake Michigan series:

Haiku Gift for 2020 is a new post at Haiku Art Site.

I created a collection of my haiku, with photos from the WordPress.com Free Photo Library.

some water
for the Christmas cactus
new buds grow

sunny morning
with no wind
lilies bloom

I subscribe to my blogs, so I have an extra copy of my posts. Good to have copies of our work. I often write my poems directly in post drafts now.

The email for my previous post, Post Design, reprints my haiku clearly.

For the different presentations of the poem, please visit the post. You may have noted this already.

I am so grateful for the many ways to create, read, and view our art.

Yesterday, I updated my About page, since I began Journal Notes Blog in March 2017.

Thank you
