I have found One Deep Breath, a site for Haiku poetry. (See Sites I like)
I love haiku, they are so clean and spare. Writing them really focuses the mind and encourages a writer's discipline, cuts out wordiness, which usually means adjectives. It's a useful habit when writing anything. Keep it simple, it stands out amongst all the outrageous fuss. So I'm giving this week's challenge a go. Might as well now that I've got the poetry juices on the go, shame to waste it isn't it?
