The Wales Haiku Journal is curated and edited by a team of two - reading carefully, caring deeply, and trying to do right by every poem that comes our way.

 

Each season, we read and respond to thousands of poems, discuss selections carefully, and edit and format each issue by hand. Alongside the journal, we also run our companion space, the Word Emporium, a place that explores words, their meanings, and the ways they shape how we see the world.

​

As the journal continues to grow, we’re inviting readers who value this work to help support its sustainability. If you enjoy this edition, discovered a poem you’ve returned to, or found something meaningful elsewhere on the site, reader support helps us continue.
