  • Haiku Commentary

    Honored and grateful to be featured in “Haiku Commentary” on 1st September, for my “summer solstice”haiku which won the 2nd Prize in the Japan Fair Haiku Contest:

    summer solstice
    the busker plays
    a tune from home

    The insightful and beautiful comments by dear Hifsa Ashraf made my day. Congratulations to Elliot Diamond and Jennifer Gurney whose haiku are also featured.

    This is a great blog and I follow it regularly to learn more from the valuable commentary of the Editors – Nicholas Klacsanzky, Jacob D Salzer & Hifsa Ashraf.
