The Way

Plodding ever upward. Steep, narrow and winding, a footpath worn in stone. A

single scraggly bloom ekes out life in a barren crevice. Beyond the edge, a flotilla of clouds stretches across an endless blue sky. I ponder my place in it all. In the footsteps of those gone before, I seek what they sought.

Warmest New Year wishes to all of you from Triveni Spotlight!

Though any day of the year is good to begin something new, the first day of the new year comes with a tinkle of celebration. No better day than this to do something new here on Spotlight.

Presenting a collection of uplifting haibun this month, each that speaks of hope, peace, joy or acceptance, all from the archives of haikuKATHA.

May 2025 be filled with all of the above for you, dear poets.
