    I'm a fan. In fact, I just published a haiku lens.
    The haiku I enjoyed the most from your lens is the autumn haiku with the tinkling wind chimes. Nice presentation of information.

    Haiku is beautiful miniature piece of cosmic truth. One day I would like to write on on my own.

    I always like learning new things, and your lens just tough me what Haiku is.
    Thanks.

    I teach a few students in my class (around age 60) who belong to the Fuji Haiku Society. Every year they climb part way up Mt.Fuji to where the glacier is, grab some glacier ice for their whiskey, as write Haiku. just Brilliant.

    I enjoyed this. And you may be interested in new form of haiku, the HaiTweet, See lens HaiTweet: New Form of Poetry for explanation or go to Twitter and search #HaiTweet.

    I will keep coming to your lens, very good to re-read these poems.

    Thank you for this lens. Haiku is a very important reflective practice for me.

    Wonderful lens! When I was in my high school years, we used to write Haiku and it was fun and great:) Sundae.

    Hope not said this before here. I enjoy reading haiku, but I can't write it on my own.
  • LasgalenArts Dec 24, 2010 @ 3:52 pm | delete
    I use haiku to get my poet juices flowing. If anything, at least I've written a poem that day.
  • ChrisDay Dec 20, 2010 @ 10:54 pm | delete
    I've tried my hand at haiku on a few occasions and it's not as easy as it looks. Great lens!
  • TeaLady Dec 21, 2010 @ 12:57 am | delete
    Thanks, Chris!

    Hi Pat,

    Great lens on Haiku. I live in Japan and am interested in Haiku and Tanka (57577).

    I'd like to recommend the Illustrated Japanese Classics edition of Bassho's The Narrow Road to Oku, translated by Donald Keene, and beautifully produced and illustrated.

    BTW I landed on this lens via a link in your Twitter post! Oh, and by coincidence, the security code I have to enter to get this comment posted is "twitlove"!!

    Hi Pat, You're invited to add a haiku about Squidoo to my lens Squidoo Shaiku and I'll feature one of your lenses and promote it in other ways as well!

    Cool lens! 5***** I love poetry and am a poet.

    I am a BIG fan of Haiku, and I love this lens. I'm not very good at creating Haiku, however, so it'll be a while before I take up the offer (above) to post Haiku! Silver Lotus

    Isn't haiku a great enjoyment and outlet? I like both traditional and nontraditional haiku, but on my lens Haiku Mix, I probably write more nontraditional.

    Nice job with your lens.

    This is beautiful Pat, I didn't know what a Haiku was, and now I do!
