Everything Old is New Again
I was so unprepared for the sudden dismantling of self as menopause hit. Smack
dab in my face as it slides down into my neck. Or the creep of crepe paper under
my chin that threatens an incoming waddle. My hourglass figure is now becoming more apple by the day, and trust me, it isn’t keeping the doctor away.

Warmest New Year wishes to all of you from Triveni Spotlight!
Though any day of the year is good to begin something new, the first day of the new year comes with a tinkle of celebration. No better day than this to do something new here on Spotlight.
Presenting a collection of uplifting haibun this month, each that speaks of hope, peace, joy or acceptance, all from the archives of haikuKATHA.
May 2025 be filled with all of the above for you, dear poets.

I laughed aloud for this line.
Nice haibun.
