two year old
starting pennies
from seed

Born and raised in the USA, I have been writing and publishing haiku since the early 70’s. My work has appear in in many periodicals including Dragonfly, Tightrope, Brussels Sprouts, Frogpond, Haiku Harvest, Modern Haiku , Heron’s Nest, World Haiku Review, WorldWall, Simply Haiku, Poets Market, and the occasional anthology. Sometimes it has won prizes though contests were entered more by accident than otherwise.

kids walk to the door
arms raised, to toss him in the air

So this is another two year old? Not the one from Oz? ;-)
I absolutely adore the haiku, can’t imagine how I didn’t comment on it before.
