A new month dawns and brings good tidings! #failedhaiku, a journal of English senryu is online. @Senryulournal
Grateful to dear Kelly Sauvage Moyer, Editor for accepting my 4 #senryu, for Failed Haiku, Vol 10, Issue 109. Kelly, your note announcing the release of the journal deeply touched my heart. I share it here:
“Once again, you all have touched my heart and I can’t help but to express my thanks. For what, you ask? For entrusting me with not only your work but the truest parts of yourselves. Each issue, you share the moments that have moved you. You give me (and your readers) access to your delight, your disappointment, your memories, your hopes and so much more. It’s often hard to find people within our daily lives who are capable of holding space for authentic emotion so, through our verse, the world at large becomes our trusted confidante. That’s the blessing and curse of being a writer, isn’t it? We need to be heard and understood. Though your spouse or best friend may think you’re off your rocker, please know that I celebrate you for your courage and willingness to show the very essence of who you are.”
With love and admiration,
Kelly
