#Haiku Happenings #5: THF presents the Earthrise Rolling Haiku Collaboration 2022 (hat tip Ellen Grace Olinger)!

Welcome to the world’s largest annual collaborative poem. This year our seed poem takes up the theme of rebirth, as International Haiku Poetry Day this year takes place on the day of the  celebration of Easter. Please add your poem(s) in the Reply Box below, ideally at dawn at your location, but any time that you are able. The timeline for this begins at 12:01 A.M. on April 17 at the International Date Line (which is why it seems to have started the day before, for many of us). Your poem(s) may respond to the “seed” poem:

the cracked shell
of a robin’s egg
Easter Sunday
          — Carlos Colón (The Heron’s Nest 14.3)
