8May2022 - and I just now found you - 12:36 PM. I was born in Ashtabula and raised in Cleveland - moved to Long Island, now live in the San Diego area.
I have loved haiku for as long as I can remember - and have written a few.
A boss, who was from Japan, said he was "very impressed" with my haiku.
I have old books:
1. Japanese Haiku (1955-1956 The Peter Pauper Press)
2. Haiku Poetry (vol 1) (1968 Japanese Publications) soft
3. Haiku Poetry (vol 2) (1968 Japanese Publications) soft
4. Haiku Poetry (vol 3) (1968 Japanese Publications) soft
5. Haiku Poetry (vol 4) (1968 Japanese Publications) soft
6. The Four Seasons (second series) (1958 Peter Pauper Press)
7. Haiku Harvest (series four) (1962 The Peter Pauper Press)
All are in very good condition! I have cherished them as did my husband who gave them to me from his 'collection.'
