Great job, Jenn. Thank you for hosting each week!! I look forward to the next 100!!
What a milestone I tell ya. And to be such a little part of it gives me great pleasure as well. Mahalo for always being there week in and week out with this. It’s one of the joys of my week I tell ya. Here’s to the next 100 weeks :) Keep up the good work.
Thanks for hosting every single week and for encouraging me to participate :)
You have inspired me so much as I come back to writing and to Haiku in particular that I have started a Haiku Blog. I had surgery Wednesday and new that I could not write then so I created 3 Haiku … obviously not knowing of the theme. I hope they will be acceptable.
Thank you so much for this place, Liz
I can’t leave a comment on your blog because you don’t have name/url enabled. Yours are fabulous! Thanks for joining us!
Yes there is just something so… centering about haiku. There’s nothing overdone about it – no excess. I absolutely adore it! I love writing it also – I think I have even come to think in a 5-7-5 pattern.
Thank you Jenn. I am not sure what is wrong technologically speaking. I now attempt to write one a day. Hopefully they are now accessible.
Surprise! I´m here too. :)
Love your poem. So bittersweet.
I sort of cheated this week, but I did want to be part of the anniversary celebration. May you celebrate hundreds more!

(Hello, my Jenn, have a wonderful day on your anniversary in Te Reo Maori (and in Haiku!))
I did no haiku

LOL gotta love macrons. Here again without them:
Tena koe, my Jenn

Congrats on the 100th week of haiku! Your meme is a pleasant inspiration. I love the themes that most of the time seem to fit perfectly with my moods and situations. Thank you for giving me a time to muse and empathize, Jenn.
