Leave a Comment / ARCHIVES, CONTRIBUTING WRITERS, FEATURED POSTS /

In Carole’s previous “Alaska Letter 9” she wrote to her sister Mary, “I’m thinking about getting my own boat, and fishing it next summer.”

The NESTER has previously featured Maureen’s wonderful photographs of Maui and the Cascades. In this post you will be delighted to  reflect over Maureen’s 4 summer Haiku.  About her interest in writing Haiku, Maureen tells us, “I’ve always been attracted to this form and enjoy the mental challenge of working with the five, seven, five syllable structure.”  She adds “I love nature and Haiku are traditionally meant to evoke the natural world so that’s another reason I’m drawn to this form of poetry.”
