To fight destruction, create.

Small simple creations are an easy way to connect with others and to stand against the darkness which we see unfolding across America. Haikus are simple to create but these little poems can move hearts and mountains. Since 2015, on every Friday, I have had the honor of reading haikus sent in from around the world. Five syllables, then seven syllables and, finally, five syllables - that's a haiku.

Please join us and send in your haikus. You can find the latest archives here. Thanks! Maeve

Haiku Friday May 15 2026

I haven’t written

As I promised that I would:

No doubt, distracted.

Max Q

The ticks are fierce now

One attached to my right boob

didn't buy me lunch.

April

A very sad sight

All flat and desiccated

Death of a house frog

Rikosan

Turkey Vulture Love

Giant wings and chicken feet

Heart in its strong beak
