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!

This one sounded derivative to me, though perhaps you didn't intend it to be derivative. (When I used to compose music, I would compose melodies only to discover they were, note for note, melodies I had picked up elsewhere.)
There's a haiku, by Basho I think, that's almost identical to this. If you're interested, I could probably find it and send it your way.
