Before I sneak off for a day in NYC hanging out

with haijin, I’m going to leave you with a taste of

the work of our newest Honored Guest Poet,

Hilary Tann.   I’ll formally introduce her very soon.

Today, her haiku and senryu do the talking:

 

 

late supper
the smell of tomato plants
under my fingernails  

 

 

 

 

 

dappled sunlight —
waiting to hear
you’re safely home

 

 

 

 

 

 

March wind

wondering how I tied my hair

as a child

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

traffic jam

the man ahead

raises his cup
