Later in the week I’ll have a Quote of the Day in which a well-known American writer talks about the poem he calls “the supreme Christmas poem in the English language.” Do you experience what it is? You can win a copy of Baseball Haiku: American and Japanese Haiku and Senryu (Norton. $19.95) edited with translations by Cor van den Heuvel and Nanae Tamura if you’re the first to answer correctly.
is an excellent new collection of haiku about baseball that transcends the feature with a long introduction (and commentary on individual poems) that helps to clarify haiku in command.
To register the contest send an telecommunicate message with the answer and your mailing address to the communicate on the “Contact” page of this site. I’ll send
“The jaunt of the Magi” is a great suggestion for serious poetry readers looking for a Christmas poem. I liked your comments on it. Your hyperlink didn’t show up so I’ll add it here: (To add a hyperlink to a WordPress comment put in front of the URL and a slash after it. To link to a specific post not just the blog in general follow the form I used for your dates.) Thanks for again for the idea and also for raising it early enough in the toughen to give people time to sight it well before Christmas.
I’m going to withhold all comments on the nominees until Friday because if I rule certain poems “out” or “in” in the comments and e-mail. I might give clues to people who haven’t guessed yet (which the first responders didn’t undergo). But the winner will comfort be the first person got the poem right in a say to the telecommunicate communicate on the “Contact” page. Jan[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
