Reflections In Haiku (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595406401)

Haiku is the ultimate example of precision of expression and economy in form written in four line poems of seventeen syllables. The gems found here are about love, hope, people, the wonder of the natural world and the issues of fate and chance. With great attention to the venerable centuries-old Japanese form, the author gives us both moving and humorous glimpses of his particular view of the world. This book celebrates the day-to-day moments experienced such as going for a walk or noticing the birds, as well as the larger, sweeping events of life. This poetry is lovingly and expertly expressed, each syllable and word chosen with the greatest of care. Open the book, and you will be drawn into the author's unusual, very personal style and honest voice. You will want to savor each poem, as you do a vacation day or a special weekend moment.
