This book contains 369 haiku about the sun plus two bonus short stories and a poem. I wanted to start 2025 with a book filled with sunshine!

Excerpts:

1.

the lemon drop sun

a sweet confectioner’s dream

fifty cents a bag

2.

caressing my skin

with his energetic love

sun carries me home

3.

sun-dappled water

lies calmly beneath blue skies

deep meditation

4.

june sun melts my heart

with spectacular results

paint brushes sizzle

the cranberry sun

dips below the horizon

delicious sunset
