I am thrilled to present the marvelous Haiku challenge.

• Pick a number from 1-15 and I'll post the haiku here under a spoiler
• Post a fic of whatever length in either SW or NSW fandom according to the TOS and then post the link here for the story list
• There is no deadline and the story can even be combined with any other challenge(s) you're writing for.

Source for most is Will Espero's Sunday Haiku

Thank you. I rather like some of the other prompts, too....

May I ask where you're getting these haiku? Do you write them yourself, or do you have a source text?

The majority come from Sunday Haiku by Will Espero. Some come from a website featuring haiku. I will provide the link whenever those are selected.
