Kayla says:

The best haiku have a story behind them. Though this was inspired by Mira Rehm after suggesting a haiku revision. A friend played a guitar rift for me a couple months ago, and I still remember laughing afterwards as the rain made standing puddles at our feet.

We had fun!

Kayla’s thoughts on William Zote previously unpublished poem

(permission granted by the author)

William Zote is a haiku poet from India that has been inspiring me since I started out writing haiku poems. His work is the most saved in my phone! He is one of the best, and he should get recognition more for it. I chose this particular poem because the colour of parting both reminds me of going through my divorce and the hard road to discovering new love in the future ahead of me.

“What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason! How infinite in faculties! How like an angel in apprehension! How like a god!”
