My poem was published in A Moment’s Longing, Haiku Society of America Members’ Anthology 2019, edited by Tanya McDonald.
I am grateful, and still remember seeing this poem in the yard.
At POEMS FROM OOSTBURG, WISCONSIN, I am reviewing some posts.
Some of the poems I wrote for my blogs have been published over the years in journals and books.
I thought History of a Poem would be a good way to present my current review and posts – perhaps a small book in the next year or two. Thank you.
