How surprised I was that I didn't know what the words meant!<br />That was a long time at a different time in a golden age. <br /> Thanks for your haiku & the memory.snowbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15316143918251372333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4466924160507043747.post-48539434636109669442009-11-20T14:21:44.014-05:002009-11-20T14:21:44.014-05:00I'm just making time in a mad day to hear some...I'm just making time in a mad day to hear some of John's CD.<br /><br />I can't recommend this CD highly enough for so many reasons. You won't regret adding this to your haiku library.<br /><br />I'll be catching up on Dunlap's recording soon, too! ;-)<br /><br />Alan<br />renga weblink: <a href="http://area17.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">1000 Verse Renga</a><br /><br />Area 17https://www.blogger.com/profile/07472190637554124160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4466924160507043747.post-27488957855569376532009-11-20T13:16:04.441-05:002009-11-20T13:16:04.441-05:00That's wonderful, Curtis!

And I love your challenge for all of us to do that. Some of your readers might be interested in a book-with-CD that was created in 2003 by 24 poets, each reading 5 or 6 of their haiku. It is SO COOL hearing their voices! I still have copies available at $16 postpaid if anyone is interested. I can provide a list of the participating Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498249394656758267noreply@blogger.com
