My good friend Ron Evans died last September, leaving behind a lost trove of writings. I received permission to seek publication for a selection of his haiku, which are now published at The Zen Space. Guest editor Daniel Paul Marshall assembled a superb selection of poetry (not just haiku). Check it out!
What a beautiful way to honor your friend. Thank you for keeping his legacy alive.

OMG I had no idea that Ron passed. I had been away from wordpress for a year or so and just recently returned. He was a wonderfully talented man and beautiful human being.

Ron had quit blogging quite a while ago, so I think most of his former followers had no idea. He was quite a guy, with many wide-ranging interests and enthusiasms.
