It was in May 2018 when I wrote my First 2 Haiku ….

Today I am presenting the first two Haiku poems that I ever wrote, and they were from May 2018. which is just under four years ago. My first two attempts were reasonably well received and the concise haiku format seemed to suit my style of writing, and since that time I have written another “118 Haiku”
Sky Blue (my 1st Haiku)
I’m covered in blue
The morning sky clears my eyes
Sea-air fills my lungs
Today (my 2nd Haiku)
Rain, hail, or sunshine
The lover’s pen writes a line
Inside a hearts shrine
