  • Fresh Out Mag

    Grateful to Eric Lohman, Editor, Fresh Out Mag for the publication of my collaborative #shahai with Prakarsh Singh who clicked the beautiful #photo that inspired the haiku.

    A shahai, combines a #haiku/tanka and an image. The image usually does not directly correspond to the haiku/tanka, but connects to it subtly. #memories #mountain #poem

    Grateful to Craig Kittner, Guest Editor, kj & Lori for selecting my #haiku.

    Congratulations to all featured poets. Craig writes, “It is through the nature of our attention that we find connection with a moment. The nature of the moment hardly matters. The moment is haiku if you lose yourself in it.
    Sometimes surprising things arise from just doing. Sometimes not surprising, but simply true.”
