Montage, the haiku gallery edited by Allan Burns, is one of the most popular features on our site. However, Winter (II) was the final gallery in the Montage series, so we moved Montage from the main menu to our new Publications section. To access Montage in its new location, go to any page on our site and select Publications > Montage Archive from the main menu.
The new URL is: http://www.thehaikufoundation.org/publications/montage/

Montage #43,
presented by Allan Burns,
is now up
on The Haiku Foundation website.
“Winter (II)”, the forty-third and final gallery in the Montage series, features more winter-themed haiku—by Martin Shea, Jack Barry, and THF’s founder, Jim Kacian. My thanks go out to Jim for the opportunity to create Montage, to web master Dave Russo for all his help, and to THF for hosting the series; I also thank everyone for reading and for all the valuable feedback, public and private. I’ve greatly enjoyed it, but it’s time to hoist my burdens and get on down the road. Best wishes for the New Year!

we can't recall
