Some people make judgments about the past based on values and developments today, without considering the perspectives of yesterday. HAIKU "I don't like Shakespeare," my English student told me, "He writes in clichés." #haiku #haikusaturday #3lines #poetry #poem #Shakespeare #literature #edusky

#Haiku is alive! It took us a second read to undo the subtleties of this #poem. Once we did, a Valentine's Day #HaikuCrush on Ellissa seems perfect! #poetry #micropoetry #poetrycommunity #haikufeels #writingcommunity #haikusaturday #valentine #lips #kiss #emoetry #waterfall #love #blueskypoetry

Celebrating #haikuSaturday with this ode to the Lenten rose that sprouted in a crack between our stone steps: slender slice of soil enough tough seed reaches roots blooming into light #poetry #haiku #grit #resilience

Sometimes a #haiku is like a long-form #kenning. Perhaps winter's teeth or, reusing your image, winter's fangs or, as one of the other poets wrote, frost bite
