It's the last day of National Poetry Month already. Great sadness.
Since May is a busy, busy month for a lot of us, I'll end the month with some haiku websites to sample in the weeks to come. No matter how busy you are, surely there's time for a three-line poem! (Or two. Or three. Haiku are a bit like literary potato chips, once you discover how tasty they are.)
The Heron's Nest
https://www.theheronsnest.com/index.html
(Fully on-line haiku journal, with 12 pages plus Editors' Choices to explore.)
Autumn Moon Haiku Journal
https://www.autumnmoonhaiku.com/
(Another fully on-line journal, though not paginated. I just discovered this one myself.)
tinywords
https://tinywords.com/
(One new haiku a day, on this site or in your Inbox.)
Haikuniverse
http://www.haikuniverse.com/
("A daily haiku or micro-poem," on this site or in your Inbox.)
Modern Haiku
http://www.modernhaiku.org/index.html
(A print haiku journal, but with fairly extensive online sample pages. Includes essays.)
Frogpond
http://www.hsa-haiku.org/frogpond/index.html
(The print journal of the Haiku Society of America, with extensive online sample pages. Includes essays.)
The Haiku Foundation
https://www.thehaikufoundation.org/#per_diem
(Fascinating site with Per Diem daily haiku & many articles, plus whole older collections of haiku available on-line.)
[Truth in blogging: aside from Autumn Moon, I've had work in all of these publications at some point.]
