I started out writing poetry as almost exclusively sonnets. The Shakespearean and Italian sonnet forms are still my very favorite. But over the past decade or so I have written and published a lot of haikus. I like the constraint of a specific form (primarily the 5-7-5 syllable format per line), but also the ability to say a lot in very few words. I alo like to use linked haikus to create longer works. Here, I will post some new and older haikus that may be new or previously published online or in my two books of poems. I'll try to post here fairly regularly for awhile if readers read and enjoy them, so if you also like the haiku form, please check in from time to time. And thanks for viewing my simple musings.
