He is an author and poet and also does author interviews and much more on his blog. Be sure to check it out. Read Ron’s Haiku Prompt Challenge Guidelines for more information.

There have been so many new additions to the family in the last two years and also outside the family––friends and neighbors. There are babies everywhere and there’s nothing cheerier than that. However, I went in a different direction with this week’s prompt words, Birth and Cheer.
Here’s my haiku . . .
♥
Cheer tangerine skies
As warmth and light play in air
A new day is born
♥
Have a happy Friday everyone!
Beautiful image and haiku. Thanks, Vashti!

Ah, the video. I remember last year I didn’t know it was coming. This year I did. Hugh did a great job of stealing us away to say our piece. Thanks for your kind comment Vashti. xx
