I think your poem


I think your poem
While delightful to people
might confuse the dog

The Infamous "Hi Cow" Haiku

Well, that was surreal.  I just met one of Japan's highly esteemed poets - Shokan Kondo.  He is in Arkansas to headline a meeting of the American Haiku Society (or something like that.)   I told him that I had written one haiku in my life.   So I recited it for him.  He liked it and had me write it down in one of his journals.

Hello Dog, Hi Cow
Salutations to the Frog
Everyone Wave.
