[At sporting events we have what's called "The Wave". I'd heard about it and had seen it on TV. A number of years ago I had a chance to experience it at a hockey game. It was cool to be a part of a living wave.]
From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.
