Hello everyone! I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Today is both International and National Haiku Poetry Day. So what is a better way to celebrate National Poetry Month today than by showcasing a few of my favorite haikus that I’ve written recently?

Today is also Easter. My children’s books don’t have a religious affiliation, but my adult books do, so I do consider myself a Christian author. I wanted to start this post with a few haikus that celebrate Easter. The reason for Easter is the entire reason I am a Christian – not only do I believe that Jesus saved my soul when He rose again from the dead, defeating both Satan and death, but He also saved my life from suicide in 2003. He completely changed my life.

Here are just a few haikus I thought of. All of these pictures I took on our various travels over the years. (The picture of the moon above was actually from my last trip to Walmart. I came out and it was pouring rain. By the time I got to my car and unloaded the cart, the moon was out. So strange.)

Thank you, everyone
For reading some poetry

(See what I did there? 😉 )

Happy Easter!
