What Rebecca said. I loved blogging so much for so many years but in this rapidly changing electronic world, more and more social media grabs attention. So glad to reconnect with you here. How are things in Washington?
Bonnie of Original Art Studio recently bashed what she refers to as pseudo-haiku , saying she refuses to leave comments on blogs that post them. She says, "A haiku true to its original form should contain a seasonal reference, not be subjective, and contain a line that juxtaposes in clear contrast to the other two. " ` She goes on, "Rarely do blog-posted haiku even meet one of the criteria, let alone all three." So this week, I'm posting a haiku from one of the masters. Does this haiku measure up? "A Fairy Moon and a Lonely Shore" - Matsumoto Print # 39, Matsumoto Do, Ltd. Tokyo thought to be pre-1915 Japanese woodcut print Autumnal full moon the tides slosh and foam coming in - Bashö Haiku My Heart
Haiku My Heart i invite you to imagine living in peace one day at a time I have to admit that I'm finding it hard to celebrate the birthday of my country having declared its independence from Mother England, when the country was founded on institutionalized slavery, the idea that white men were created equal but but black men were less than and women weren't even considered. We tend to glorify the "all men are created equal" phrase without looking at the reality. We can do better. We must.
