the haiku circle

imagine for a moment . . .

returning to the original source of inspiration. Where beginning was a spring river and everything reflected was a place where you belonged. Yourself being yourself being poetry.

Now consider the following words from Chuang Tzu (369-286 b.c.)

                         "Do not be an embodier of fame.
                          Do not be a proprietor of wisdom.
                          Embody to the fullest what has no end.
                          Hold on to all that you have received. . .
                          but do not think you have received anything.
                          Be empty, that is all."

Welcome to the Haiku Circle

The Haiku Circle meets once a year, usually on the first Saturday of June. This unique gathering began in 2007 and has been beginning ever since.
