Bio Sketch
A resident of British Columbia, Canada, Laryalee Fraser was actively engaged in online poetry forums from the mid-1990’s until her death in 2013. Her poetry has been widely published in haiku and tanka journals, and in 2006, she compiled an online anthology of haiku, "a procession of ripples."
L1 sets the scene and mood while unexpected yet visually evocative L3 adds emotional weight to the haiku.
ReplyDeleteAnd my haiku below could be read as a prequel to Laryalee's :
airport window
summer clouds come and go,
come and go ...
