morning glory lifts her head
slight chill greets the day

/ September 22, 2017Enjoyed the simplicity and beauty of your haiku. Certainly there are two camps of haiku writers. I favor the senryu & the tanka, and do not feel as comfortable quilling within the corset of tradition. All the forms we members participate in are supposed to enrich our own work, our style. I love the Haibun form, but I adore taking liberties with it, expanding it, personalizing it.

/ September 23, 2017Hi Glenn, thanks, as always, for a relevant and thoughtful comment. Yes, there do seem to be different camps on these matters. I understand your point of view regarding the different forms and how we can use those to expand our work styles. Taking liberties with forms is how we investigate possibilities with our personal creations…I so agree. But I also see the beauty of ancient traditional techniques and enjoy honoring those.

/ October 22, 2017I think your haiku is unique because actually I think a lot of people associate morning glories with summer. In my garden only a few scattered ones are still growing. So while dead leaves is a common autumn motif, your haiku also has the turning of summer into autumn with “morning glory” for summer and “slight chill” for the beginning of fall. It’s pretty awesome
