I’m incredibly honored to have a haiku in Sakura Fubuki, published by The Pakistan Japan Cultural Association (PJCA), in collaboration with the Embassy of Japan in Pakistan, as part of PJCA’s Year of Haiku 2026. Thanks so much to Editor and Coordinator Hifsa Ashraf. pjca-isb.org/wp-content/u...

A text based image of a haiku which displays first in English, then in Urdu and Japanese. The English version reads:

falling sakura 
urging us onward
tread softly! 

Below the Urdu and Japanese translations, the poet’s name and location display.
