This blog is an extension of the ideas presented in my book (Haiku Notebook Second Edition, smashwords.com, 2010). It is intended to be a forum for discussing haiku and haibun. My hope as an educator is to stimulate interest in writing these forms. So, please feel free to post. [NOTE: click "comments" to read poems by other poets, as well as discussion]. Thank you for visiting!

haibun by ed markowski
repast
the eatery was located in the mansion of a
lumber baron who built his palace from
pink jasper in 1874 with the labor of
men whose presence he'd have
never tolerated at his back
door let alone his dinner
table.
every restaurant reviewer in the city
afforded treasure's wine list,
cuisine, ambiance &
service five stars.
her lobster stuffed salmon was charred
& dry, my venison medallions with
juniper sauce bled across the
bone china plate despite
my perfectly clear request
of medium well.

scrubbing the dirt
from last year's potatoes

Independence Day poems by ed markowski
fireworks uncle mack mutters tet
july 4th every flag sewn in china
flyball
flashing white to blue to red
the northern lights
independence day
the sound of flags fluttering
at Arlington
bottle rockets
memories arise
in technicolor
independence day
the dulled point of father's
foxhole shovel
