Haiku Dialogue

HAIKU DIALOGUE – happy holidays!

Take a week off – I have decided we all deserve it! I want to express my sincere thanks to The Haiku Foundation for the invitation to create this feature, & their continuing support. Thanks also to Post Manager Lori Zajkowski, who works tirelessly every week to ensure these posts are the best that they can be.
Please welcome two new additions to the Haiku Dialogue team – Lafcadio & Vandana Parashar will be helping behind the scenes starting in January, & we all appreciate it!
& to all the poets who continue to read & write & submit – as I have often said – I couldn’t do this without you!
happy writing, & with all best wishes for 2025 & beyond! kj

 

Join us next week for our next prompt…
