Some Haiku by Performing Participants:

Long ago
I would have picked

these violets

Sylvia Forges-Ryan

The scent of lilac
suddenly snatched by the wind
away from my nose.

Klaus-Dieter Wirth
changing colour
with seasons, the neighbour's
bouquet on my desk

Višnja McMaster

lazy afternoon
the geranium's shadow rustles
with the geranium

Bruce Ross

round the lake
a distant cloud disappears
behind the mountain

Ion Codrescu
cable car -
the sound of thunder
between hills

Dejan Bogojević
autumn morning -
river-mist rising
and sheep's breath

Norman Darlington
Along the beach:
you can hear a boat
and a fishermen's song

Sunčica Šamec
spring cleaning
I find the key to the house
we no longer share

John R. Snyder
summer lightning
revealing in the night
the hidden paths

Moussia Fantoli
shell
what remains of the lake
in one hand

Feu Violet
the wind shapes
the sand dune
shapes the wind

David E. LeCount
Last words spoken -
I listen to the sound
of my breath


Sylvia Forges-Ryan
seen off
by the full moon, my father
makes his last journey


Susumu Takiguchi

Dear Mr. Milivoj Objedović,

Greetings and congratulations on the opening of the World Haiku Festival in Holland! May this gathering of haiku poets from around the world enjoy a
great sharing of poems and views on haiku, haibun, and related literature.

I join the many who wish you great success, and look forward to seeing the
results of some of your activities on the web site of the the World Haiku
Club.

With best wishes, Bill Higginson
