January
your birthday
but all I remember
is the frost
February
pink dawn
tail lights
all the way to Vail
April
bloody knuckles
but the toilet works
May
finals week
even the squirrels
have pizza
June
on the radio again
that song
I'll be humming all day
August
smoke follows you
-a white ribbon-
but I don't
September
honeybees
and helicopters
pass by over the hill
October
orange morning
fading sunrise
fallen leaves, ginger cat
November
weak economy
a maze
in every corn field
December
all my paperwork
piece by piece removed
from under the kitten

A sampling of my 2010 haiku writing, by month.
It's possible I was writing for journals that want only unposted haiku during the down months. I don't have record of that, unfortunately.
In March it looks like I spent the whole month sewing…
In July it seems I was doing some very intense job pursuit...
I DID do 3 sets where I wrote a haiku every day for a month,
and in August participated in a HUGE renga. So no guilt over taking a month off here and there.

January is my birthday (yesterday in fact - I turned 50).
It would be funny if frost was frosting - so that all the person is remembering is the cake.
I love the colour of October.
I enjoyed the whole set. A year in haiku - a great idea that I might have a go at too.
