This was supposed to be the prompt for spring break (but the blog fell off my radar for a moment) ;) If you'd like to still try it out I'd love to see what everyone comes up with!
Write a haiku for every person that has impacted, swayed, or influenced your life in a grand way. Create a series of haiku with these poems. The haiku can be for anyone: a teacher, grandfather, gas station pump attendant - anyone you feel has made a valuable impact on your life.
"There is nothing you can see that is not a flower; there is nothing you can think that is not the moon." - Matsuo Basho

Sit down and ponder for a moment about every person who impacted you or helped you get where you are today. These could be significant others, professors, your parents, that guy you once met at the Loaf & Jug on the way home from work...think about these people and how they have impacted your life, and then write a haiku for every person that is significant enough to deserve one.
