Author's Notes: The brilliant mind of Vocal creator Hannah Moore inspired this Haiku. The Haiku stands on its own but was written to take its place in the Renga.

"Renga is a collaborative progressive poem ... join us! You just need to pick up where the last person left off, following an alternating format of 5,7,5 and then 7,7 syllable counts and linking your stanza to the last." -- Hannah Moore

Click the link to read the collaborative poem created thus far by Hannah Moore, John Cox, Teresa Renton, Rachel Deeming, Paul Stewart, Mike Singleton-Mikeydred, me, Heather Hubler, D.K. Shepard, Cathy Holmes, Sonia Heidi Unruh, Dana O. Crandell, and others? Maybe you? Cannot wait to see what comes next!

This Haiku, "Preserved," is intended to follow Dana's 7,7 "Acceptance."
