My goal for Poetry Month: A haiku diary that may include other forms related to haiku, like haibun, haiga. monoku or renga. My first poem speaks of why I am handwriting the poems.

DeleteChocolate cake. Such a simple act so loaded with emotion. We had peanut buster parfaits yesterday. Today I'm remembering my Dad.

Food brings big emotion, I know. Chocolate was Mom's favorite thing, and chocolate cake for her birthday. Thanks, Cheriee. I love hearing about your peanut buster parfaits, a sometime favorite of my husband.
