A TUESDAY FEATURE

host: Muskaan Ahuja, Lakshmi Iyer

guest editor: K. Ramesh


''Haiku is not in the business of trying to discover totally new things (that is the province of

science) but in perceiving things in a totally new way (which is poetry)."


--- Speculations by Robert Speiss



How open are we to register the Aha moments is the question. If we are preoccupied, our

senses are not open to perceive a haiku moment.

I lower

the newspaper


--- K. Ramesh



Please compose two haiku based on this : ‘to see the extraordinary in the ordinary’, and share

your work.

Replying to

L3 can be specific, Lakshmi. I agree with Rupa— ‘aroma’ is a better word.
