Haiku
After 1,000 consecutive days of haiku, I ended this project. The full archives are indexed here for your convenience.
Alison, my wife, on haiku:
Haiku is, I think,
The original tweeting.
Clever, short, and sweet!
A simple haiku texted after our 2018 summer vacation changed everything. I enjoyed it so much, I sent her one back. Now, I’m totally hooked. Below is a collection of haiku that I’ve written about my life. Enjoy the simple delight of the 5-7-5, perfect for Micro.blog.
