Issue
two of the World Haiku Review Haibun Section continues to see us
explore what haibun is and might be. This
issue, in addition to some wonderful haibun, we have an essay by
Bruce Ross that shows us more of the possibilities that haibun has
to offer the haikai writer and an interactive piece based on
marlene mountain's work that I hope will inspire readers to submit
their own haibun "found" or inspired by marlene's
painted haibun.
The
haibun this issue explore "encounters" of one kind or
another, some directly with people others with people via other
avenues such as birds, plants and art.
I hope
that you feel inspired to try your hand at haibun in the Haibun
Challenge (see next page) and submit it to us at World Haiku
Review for possible inclusion in future issues. Members and
non-members of the World Haiku Club may enter the Haibun
Challenge.
Send
all submissions or comments to me at paul.conneally@ntlworld.com .
