triveni spotlight A FEATURE EVERY ALTERNATE DAY! hosts: Kala Ramesh and Vidya Shankar GUEST EDITOR: Arvinder Kaur August 2023
harvested field
the tractor leaving
the sickle moon behind
Ram Chandaran
Haiku in English: Best of 2022, Mainichi Daily
A Note:
Thanks for this opportunity to present my selection to the readers and members of Triveni. In my collection for the spotlight feature, I have tried to include some of the seasoned as well as new poets who have begun to make their mark on the haikai scene all over the world. My effort is to bring them into the Triveni fold since some of them are not seen around our different features that are extremely engaging. I have noticed a freshness of images in their poems that are minimalist at times and others have an extremely interesting turn of phrase.
I hope you enjoy the read. I am looking forward to your feedback.

Thank you for being our next guest editor, Arvinder. We are waiting to see the month unfold. _()_
Like doing copy/ paste. Such a lovely picture!! What more to ask for. Thanks Arvinder for sharing this poem.
I love it, you can see the tractor driving away! And of course the juxtaposition...
Most poignantly written.
Congrats, Ram. Thanks for including this haiku in your selection, Arvinder.
