Poem of the Month

This month, Somewhere Else Writers offers readers a contemporary haiku, written by Norman Smith – the newly elected Group Chair.

Norman says ‘I capture fleeting thoughts and moments. This poem is about two people falling in love.’

He continues to travel to places that will inspire him. He started writing for his school magazine ‘The Retfordian’. Then, when a student, he wrote short stories in The Irish Mountaineering Club Magazine.

It was while working in Japan that he became fascinated by the haiku; the short intense poems still fill him with joy. You can read his haiku here.

You can also read our August and September works—Sunset in the Golden Valley by Linda Dyson here and Bee or not bee by Graham Bruce Fletcher here.
