Title: Urban haiku

Don, I noticed in one of the threads I was reading your interest in urban haiku.  Here is a link to a pretty good collection. They may even be considered haiga.

Hi Andy,

You are right, they are mostly haiku catching the photo which is a different thing.

Paul David Mena is the poet, and his wife Mary Melodee is the photographer, although she does write haiku too.

The annoying thing is they were visiting Austin, Texas the same time as me and we couldn't meet up!  Paul David Mena is one of my favourite haiku poets for writing about trains too. ;-)
