Haiku Tribute Challenge May 9
For May’s Per Diem feature on The Haiku Foundation website Carlos Colón has selected poems written as tributes to fellow haiku poets, but without indicating who the recipient of the tribute is. We challenge you to identify the poet being honored today, May 9. Read the Per Diem poem, then send us the name of who you think is the honoree in the comment box below. All recipients, and identifiers, will be revealed at the end of the month. Good luck!

I’m sorry. It was Raymond Burr, who wrote a series of Perry Mason-styled haiku, each which had an O. Henry ending.
Just kidding. Raymond Roseliep is the correct answer.
the long autumn and no letter from Raymond
by Marlene Mountain
I also thought of Raymond Roseliep (1917 – 1983). Some reading this may be interested in the online gallery Montage 23 (August 2009): The Haiku Capital of the Midwest. (Or Gallery ThirtyThree in Montage: The Book).
Raymond Roseliep is my guess as well.

Raymond Roseliep is my guess, just from the name.
