Haiku Inspiration Sites
Oct 21 2008
Yesterday, many of you did not submit your haiku on this blog. While, I am deeply upset about this, I realized that I didn’t give you a lot of outside inspiration. I think the Internet was built for the sole purpose of searching for, reading, and submitting a haiku for the greater good of all of us to enjoy them.
Here are a few sites to check out:

Here are some haikus from David Joslin on U.S. politics:
What sound do I hear,
From the nation’s capitol?
Oh! Paper shredders!
Deer in the headlights
With a grin from ear to ear –
Have they told him yet?
Draft dodger, pot head,
Womanizer and waffler.
Still better than Bush.

Nice Amber! The contest is ongoing weekly until the end of the year and there is likely more than 1 winner. Enjoy the creative process, not just the beautiful end result.

Creative thinkers,
green trees drinking the rain drops.
The beauty of Portland.
