Only Human: English Language Senryu, Volume 1, Issue 2, September 2026
chicken of the woods it doesn't taste anything like
she forgets the name
of that thing with feathers . . .
flyaway memories
Kokako, Number 45, September 2026
neon lights the flick-flick-flickering of snow
sleeping rough
the dried fungus he uses
for tinder
fierce waves
pummel rocky cliffs . . .
the widow waits
for a boat she knows
will never come home
Akitsu Quarterly, Fall/Winter 2026
reaped fields standing tall sandhill cranes
mission control
the lead goose give way
to another
torn feedsack
a fox follows
in my footsteps

Time Haiku, Number 64, August 2026
wolfsnow the howl in it
showy milkweed
the first monarch
and the last
clouds tower
over sun-drenched fields . . .
my sister leans
from a golden turret,
letting down her hair
tuffets sprout
alongside this river . . .
the first
nursery rhyme I read
to our unborn child
rowan trees
dripping with icicles
each berry
a singular moment
frozen inside time
Leaf Journal, Issue 10, August 2026
crumbling cliffs this loss more than words
seaside fireworks
herring shoals disperse
the light
4-H Club
woolly clouds fluff up
the sky
Half Day Moon Journal, Issue No. 4, August 2026
siren songs more than 130 words for wind
wild gentians untwisting the prairie sky
night migration the starred tips of reindeer lichen
jisei : this cairn of smooth, black stones
(note: jisei = death poem)

tidal surge this wave of something unutterable
beach-tumbled
the agates that will become
my earrings

hurricane cone(head) of uncertainty
paleo dig
the waste chamber

Haiku Canada: Marianne Bluger Awards, 2026
Thrilled to receive joint 1st Place in the 2026 Marianne Bluger Book Awards for Random Blue Sparks! My thanks to the judges.
Judging Commentary:
We were looking for haiku and related forms that ring true; a book or chapbook that demonstrates coherence and flow; and a book design that enhances the poet's work. A tall order, as all of these features work together to engage a reader.
—Terry Ann Carter and Philomene Kocher

Thrilled to be included in this anthology edited by Lee Gurga and Scott Metz!
