Portage Ohio HAIKU & COMMENTARY

Fields after rainfall

Mist rises from black earth’s bed

Corn whispers at dawn

Haiku Commentary This haiku evokes the agricultural landscape and moist history of the region, once part of the Great Black Swamp. The imagery of mist and rich, dark soil references both the land’s transformation and its enduring fertility. Corn, a staple crop, symbolizes rural life and the quiet persistence of small villages in Ohio’s heartland.
