Author Notes
Point Reyes is a national seashore near San Francisco, California.
CONTEMPORARY HAIKU is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection. American haiku doesn't follow the 5/7/5 form, because Japanese syllables are much shorter. The rule of thumb is to write it as succint as possible and 17 syllables or less. HAIKU uses a dash to pause before the SATORI. Avoid capitalization (except proper names) and punctuation.
