The 2016 edition of #haikuforhealing is here. All poems on this page are ©Mary Lee Hahn. If you'd like to join in, let me know and I'll add your link. This page is where I'll archive all my haiku (and probably some cheritas, too).
11/8
storms loom
buffeting winds have begun
prepare the lighthouses
11/9
chickadee swoops in
perches atop the feeder
oak leaf flutters down
11/10
yukky weather
can't dampen all the joy
grey-haired toddler
11/12
look up
the road is arduous but
beauty still abounds
11/13
the past exists
alongside the future --
seed shares branch with bud
11/14
thank you, redbud
for this incongruous
joy
11/16
ten seconds of wind
sycamore reminds me: breathe
this too will pass
11/17
be bold
hide our survival strategy
in plain sight
11/19
we see you little bloom,
understand the assignment:
darkness will not win
11/20
you are worthy
your work here is important
you are beautiful
11/21
if you leave a trace
make it a beautiful one
show your work
11/24
accidental shot
holds all essential info:
sky
11/26
ignore human quacks
lead with brassy confidence
head held high
11/27
library lions
begin, like humans, as cubs
feed them all the books
