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 - February 13, 2026

In Santa Clara,

Robert Kraft, a MAGA man,

Watched New England burn.

Max Q

Decades of hard work

Built a country for her kids

No rest for her yet

Bill

The same futile moves

Gentleman versus Satan

It looks like checkmate

Rikosan

Writing Beet Poems

Playing characters suits me

Where is my borscht belt?
