I just received a postcard in the mail. Handwritten on the back was a very hard to read little note, but I could make out that it was from Bear Creek Haiku. Since I had made a submission to this publication, I assumed that it was some form of a rejection, or a we need more time to read your work.
But after some hard deciphering, I realized it was the most amazing thing -- my first acceptance. It reads:
"Greetings. We'll place "Lluvia" in an unpcoming issue of Bear Creek Haiku, might be a while -- luck in your endeavors."
Okay, so I don't know when exactly my poem may come out, and it's just a little poem, but I don't care. It's an acceptance and I couldn't be happier. I shall be doing the happy dance tonight.
