Welcome to Summer Haiku 2009

Carrying on with the tradition of the seasonal haiku blog, first started in the spring of 2006 and managed with the help and inspiration of a number of talented poets, each one bringing his particular gift to the season's chapter, we would like to thank all previous administrators: Alison, Matt, Isabel, Ashi, Mandy, Sangeet, Paul, Alan Steve and Beatrice, the many contributing poets -by far too numerous to name them all, and last but not least, our readers. A warm welcome to the poets and readers who will help make this summer a colourful season.

This blog is open to all haiku poets. Please submit your family-friendly, haiku, senryu, tanka, haiga, or haibun.
