vincent tripi was a founder of The Haiku Poets of Northern California and the founder of The Haiku Circle (www.haikucircle.com), an annual gathering of haiku poets held each June in rural central Massachusetts. The author of 16 books of haiku, tripi began the journal Woodnotes which he co-edited. Having lived in three spiritual communities, much of his poetry reflects a Buddhist foundation. He passed away in August of 2020. His newest book of haiku, my turn now, is due out in early 2023 by Swamp Press.

Vincent,
As a horse lover, I love this haiku. Didn't we all have those imaginary moments?
This is a wonderful poem! One I won't forget….and of course, it speaks volumes, as those old rocking horses were under our control after all. Love love love it!
