Earth Day Haiku on Lunch Break Blog

Hosted by Gillena Cox on Facebook

"Third Planet from the Sun" event

With Cherries on Top

   The most awaited haiku and senryu collection, With Cherries on Top: 31 Flavors from NaHaiWriMo, is available now for FREE download here. Special thanks to the 31 prompters, the contributors, and most especially to Michael Dylan Welch for all his hard work in putting together this beautiful pdf book. 

     For each daily prompt, at least five haiku were carefully selected. I'm thrilled and honored  because aside from being one of the 31 prompters, three of my haiku are among the cream of the crop. Thanks to the NaHaiWriMo community for all the support and inspiration.
