Following up on the Zoom-based haiku card game, I wanted to create a post with recommendations for where to find haiku online that you can read and learn from, and that you can also use to create your Haiku Poetry card deck with which to play the game. (If anybody wants to play the game with me on Zoom, just let me know; I'm excited to test this out with different players — Liz and I are going to play on Sunday!)
Internet Archive. The Internet Archive is always my starting place for research and learning online! With a free account, there are literally millions of books you can check out there (the only limitation is one reader per book at a time). I wrote up a blog post previously about Issa books at the Internet Archive and Blyth's books at the Archive, and I'll be writing additional specialized posts like that. In the meantime, I've created an Internet Archive Haiku Bookshelf that you can browse with lots of haiku books. (There are lots of books there already, and I'll keep adding more.)
Living Haiku Anthology. This is an amazing global haiku project that I have written about before (previous post), and it's the source I used for the Feature slidedeck and Poetry slidedeck in my MYFest Know-Your-Haiki bingo game.
Random Issa Haiku. I've also written before (previous post) about David Lanoue's amazing Issa website which has a random Issa poem page, with a new poem each time you load the page. With over 10,000 poems at the site, it really is random! You can also find Lanoue's books readily available as Kindles or used via bookfinder.com.
Haiku Foundation Digital Library. Jim Kacian is building an online library here, book by book, journal by journal, and it is full of treasures, including many books that you cannot find anywhere else, online or in print. For example, check out Scott Mason's The Wonder Code, a big beautiful haiku poetry anthology (along with some very nice essays too!). The Haiku Foundation also has Haiku of the Day on their homepage, and a Haiku of the Day archive, along with lots more resources.
Haiku Society of America: Frogpond. Meanwhile, over at the Haiku Society of America website you can find their journal Frogpond (I really liked the Mexican Haiku essay in the latest issue, with poems in Spanish and English translation; you can find web samplers from past issues online), along with lots of other resources, such as the winning haiku poems from their many haiku contests.
So, those are just a few suggestions: please let me know of other great resources that you would recommend for finding and learning about haiku online!
