Haiku Collection
by
Michelle Dalluge
As I was writing my first haiku and the tears were rolling down my face, I quickly realized that writing haiku was going to be something that touched me deeply. With each haiku I wrote I found myself getting wrapped up in the emotions of the haiku as I remembered my childhood memories. My family is the most important thing to me, therefore a lot of my writing is based around family memories and the time we have shared.
Haiku has allowed me to express myself in a way I never had dreamed of. I would like to thank Dr. Brooks for believing in all of his students. I have enjoyed sharing my haiku with others and reading the haiku of others. I hope you enjoy reading what I feel is my personal best haiku as much as I enjoyed writing them.
