A Transcript of Today’s Episode
Hello, it’s Wednesday, May 17th, 2023, and welcome to Haiku Daily, a poetry podcast that brings you two haiku every weekday, the second one, by me, Kyle G. Jones. This podcast invites you to slow down and reflect on moments in time caught in the amber of a poet’s attention and words. I’ll read each haiku twice with space in between.
Our first haiku comes from Masaoka Shiki:
Moon behind the grasses. Wind blows through. The cry of a cuckoo.
A moment for reflection

Our second haiku was written by me
moss grows on the side of the trees we pass
A moment for reflection
