I love haiku. I’ve blogged about that before. And I’ve noticed that haiku can beget more haiku – post a haiku or two on Facebook, and a couple of friends may respond in haiku. It’s magic! On my birthday in 2011, I was awakened by a super-bright full moon, and posted this haiku on Facebook, which I called Full Moon on My Birthday.
Glowing silver orb
Says “All things are possible.”
Birthday card from God?
One of my friends, an English teacher, responded with a lovely haiku of her own.
a full moon bodes well.
reminds you that the sky’s not
empty after all.
Magic! This year, another of my friends, also an English teacher, gifted me with a very meaningful and nuanced birthday haiku on Facebook.
Birds call out to you
The garden roots again now
Season of good change.
Magic!
