Haiku Month

I just finished NaHaiWriMo! It was so so satisfying to return to my haiku practice. Here are a few poems I wrote:

On meditation:

the practice is / the practice — drink jasmine tea / and sit

On visiting my local Hindu temple with a friend:

the shrine is closed / the priest gives us bananas / anyway

On chatting with a family friend:

Halifax grandma / boiling something on the stove / she chats on the phone

I’ve submitted a multitude of my haiku to contests and magazines (not these ones). We will see if anything comes from it!

(For you keen-eyed observers, I’ve also changed my website tagline to a haiku.)

May spring greet you with joy.
