This blog is an extension of the ideas presented in my book (haiku notebook, Lulu.com, 2007). 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!

I don't wonder that the spider thought the same thing about you.
In my house, I've had a Pholcidae in my bathroom, above the tub, all winter long. She's still there. Me and the girls have named her Lavinia. She's already given birth to one brood of spiders. They've all run off for a better life. Now she's possessively nursing another egg sack.
She's done very well for herself - having eaten quite a few cluster flies and some mosquitos.
hi patrick,
nice story--you could make this a haibun!
