When I was teaching I loved to incorporate Haiku into my lessons. Doing this allowed me to see each students’ individuality and creativity. I’ve also enjoyed being in the backcountry with a group of people and everyday we select a relevant topic to our adventure, and then write a Haiku. I have a journal of backcountry Haiku I sometimes fondly look through.

This is the first Haiku I’ve attempted in quite awhile. A great reminder that I miss this form of writing.
