Thank you Bill Gates.
I wrote these poems after I retired from the Department of Veterans Affairs
Education Service in 2001.
A haiku (high-koo) is short three-line poem that
uses sensory language to capture a feeling or image.
Haiku poetry was originally developed by Japanese
poets.
It uses a simple (five) 5, (seven) 7, and (five) 5
syllables format.
They are often inspired by nature, a moment of beauty,
or poignant experience.
I wrote these with strong details and detailed imagery.
