Today’s Poetry Corner features not one, but two poems from our readers — a haiku for our Japanese friends, and a sonnet for our 400-year-old English friends. Enjoy!
THE ART OF HAIKU
by Dan Verdel
A haiku story

SONNET 18
by Clint
Shall I compare thee to a
summer’s day?
Better to that than to the Summer’s Eve,
a popular feminine deodorant spray
that hardly puts me in the mood for love.
-William Shakespeare
