S9E17 Haiku on the River
Monday, 4 May, 2026
This week on The Poetry Peacast, we drift into a river-inspired collection of haiku and senryu from our March video prompt. While Patricia is (technically) in Zürich, today’s episode is carried by the warm currents of South Africa, where the original footage was filmed during a memorable family trip.The poems featured here have been carefully edited and curated by Johnny Moran—thank you, Johnny—and capture a range of voices responding to water, movement, and the quiet details that make haiku and senryu so powerful.Congratulations to the poets whose work is included in this episode. Their poems will also appear in the upcoming issue of the 1:26 poetry journal.In this episode:A showcase of original haiku and senryuPoetry inspired by rivers, travel, and observationReflections on the March Poetry Pea video promptCommunity voices from poets around the worldIf you enjoy the podcast, you can support us by becoming a member, buying us a coffee, or making a donation via PayPal—all through our website.
