Description
Sometimes the words are not enough. The structures of language inhibit, prevent the vision. Haiku are keys to unlock images, ideas, and feelings that radiate in multi-dimentions. They are gifts to remember and to give away.
This poetry collection from Kathleen Forsythe employs a mixture of poetry styles from haiku to prose poems on subjects ranging from Greek mythology to birth.
