Happy Day 30 of National Poetry Month. I’ve enjoyed counting syllables each day — it’s been good brain exercise!

I’ve especially enjoyed reading the haikus of those who shared them. I hope you’ll continue to write them.

This last haiku was inspired by all the ways I think about how quickly time flies. This is especially true as we watch our granchildren growing up!

Today is your last chance to share a haiku for a chance to win a copy of my book, Life: Haiku by Haiku. I’ll draw tomorrow morning and will announce on this blog.

Thank you again to all who participated!

New to writing haiku? Here’s the pattern:

Three lines with a total of seventeen syllables:

Anyone who shares a haiku in the comments is entered into a drawing to win a copy of my book, Life: Haiku by Haiku!
