It’s a be-outside or stare-out-the-window kind of sunny

autumn day here in Schenectady.  I have to run down to

the Board of Elections to cast an Absentee Ballot, so I

get to actually be outside.  

 

If you’re stuck indoors, why not download David G. Lanoue’s  

haiku novel Dewdrop World (2005), which Prof. L is offering for

free in gratitude for the generosity all have shown after Hurricane

Katrina.  See our prior post, a great free novel for more details

about the novel.

 

Here are a few more of David’s haiku from Dewdrop World:

 

 

 

 

in the pink dusk

with pimples

moon

 

 

 

scrabbling for crumbs

amid the pigeons

sparrow

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

busy little buggers

the flower-mad

butterflies

this world

is a dewdrop world 

yes… but…
