Haiku is magical as it allows for an immediate experience of the moment captured by each small poem. Welcome to the journey and pay close attention to each tiny poem. Here is a collection by a veteran haiku poet and psychiatrist whose poetry softly glows with innocence spontaneity courage and humor. Few have a heart as open as David H. Rosens to face with daring honesty the full catastrophe that includes everlasting love friendship illness aging loss and nothingness. The results are disarmingly simple revelations of poetic truth rooted in nature.
