Lenard D. Moore sent this news about North Carolina Haiku Society member, L. Teresa Church:
On Sunday evening, Lynn and I attended The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Commencement, where the doctorate was conferred upon L. Teresa Church. It was a wonderful ceremony. As you know, Teresa is a member of The North Carolina Haiku Society. She's also a member of The Haiku Society of America. Her poem "a patch of silver" appears on page 19 of the Haiku Society of America Members' Anthology 2008, dandelion clocks, which Roberta Beary and Ellen Compton edited. Teresa's mother, sisters Gail and Laverne, one of her brothers, and her brother-in-law Lawrence also attended her graduation.
All the best,
Lenard D. Moore
In honor of Teresa's major achievement, I thought it would be nice to display a sampling of this gifted lady's haiku.

There are also a couple of Teresa's free verse poems on this page including sound files of Teresa reciting the aforementioned poems.
Congratulations Dr. L. Teresa Church!
