Editor’s Note
spring celebration -
birds returning to their nests
except for the peace dove
~ Lavana Kray
This haiku by Lavana Kray does more than capture a seasonal moment. It speaks to the poignancy of absence. In its delicate balance of presence and absence, homecoming and exile, this haiku distills the ache of what is missing into a single, unforgettable stroke. Look out for Lavana’s haiku, beautifully transformed into a haiga in the haiga section, and discover the poet’s story behind its creation.

HONORABLE MENTION
Dan C. Iulian
divorce —
the lingering
ring mark
Beverly Acuff Momoi (THF Monthly Kukai
Commentator): The echoes of “lingering” in “ring” are especially effective here, and
with just five words, a bigger and more painful story is intimated. Divorce
leaves a mark that lasts far longer than the actual event. Well done.
