Three haiku



I've always felt that if something happened three times, it's a sign of sorts. So when my haiku got featured three weeks in succession, I looked for meaning behind it. For yours truly, whose confidence is usually skimming the bottom of the barrel, who usually has a bad case of the imposter syndrome, this felt like a huge sign. Not a neon one blazing on all its batteries but a muted Batman sign reflected off a dark, cloudy sky. I'm probably ok. The 'ku were selected for publication in The Haiku Dialogue of The Haiku Foundation. Such a thing may never happen again, I may not be selected again, but that's a topic for another day.

Here's the site where you can find poems from really wonderful haijin; have a dekko.
