From MontageThe following poems all appeared in Montage: The Book, edited by Allan Burns (Winchester,
Virginia: The Haiku Foundation, 2010), after previously appearing together on
the Haiku Foundation’s Montage webpage in December 2009. My poems appeared with poems by Randy Brooks and David Cobb in a set referred
to as “Halcyon Days” (view PDF file). Editor Allan Burns introduced this collection by saying that “Our featured
poets approach this broad, loose theme in a variety of ways, engaging all the
senses and evoking idyllic instances of lost time,” and says “Michael Dylan
Welch, a prolific haikuist named after Dylan Thomas, founded Press Here and the
journal Tundra and coined the immortal
term ‘déjà-ku.’” The first three poems
previously appeared in The Haiku Anthology, edited by Cor van den Heuvel (Norton, 1999, third edition), and
in other publications. The remaining poems first appeared in The
Heron’s Nest, Frogpond, and Modern Haiku.
