Happy National Haiku Poetry Day 2014!
Hi All:
It’s our special day, and I hope you all have an opportunity to celebrate the fact in some way: by writing and sharing haiku, or supporting your local NHPD event, or by enjoying the 2014 HaikuNow! Contest Results, or savoring the 2013 Touchstone Individual Poems and the 2013 Touchstone Distinguished Books Awards shortlists, or, preferably, all of the above. We’d love to hear how you honored the day and your practice. Please feel free to send a comment to this post and share your experiences with your colleagues. And perhaps you’d like to continue a tradition by adding your haiku of the day in the comment box below. Happy NHPD!

Hi Ellen
I love your haiku. It brings back memories for me.

Sometimes when I read blogs, in the WordPress haiku tag, I am led back here. And so reminded to return to the contest poems and commentary today. Congratulations to all. The PDF version is also easy to read, and I like the design.
Wonderful and interesting poems and prose, and I look forward to the Touchstone results.
Dear Anne, I enjoyed your poems, and especially the second version, as it brings back so many good memories.
