“Punch”—whether real or imagined by Julian, Lord Fallbridge in our blog-novel,
Punch’s Cousin—has written a little poem for his “master.” Whether he knew it or not (I’d say, not) Punch has written a haiku. Part of living a beautiful life is accepting into our hearts the poetry in everyday things. So, I’d like to invite each of you to write a haiku this week. A haiku is a three line poem. The first line amounts to five syllables. The second is seven syllables, and the last is five again. I’m a fan of haiku. In fact, sometimes I just rattle them out for no reason. I’m curious to see your haiku. Just post your poem as a comment below. At the end of the week, we’ll take a vote to decide which we like best.
I look forward to reading your poems!
