Waking from Dreams: haiku & senryu

Judith E. P. Johnson has that crucial characteristic for haiku poets an ability to notice the minor miracles of ordinary existence - a blackbird bathing in a dogs bowl daisies ankle-deep on a lawn the reflection of a jasmine flower in a rain puddle - these are acute observations that transform everyday life into fine haiku. When she writes running along the beach the wind and I she invites us on a poetic journey where we can share her experience of Waking from Dreams. - Stephen Addiss author of The Art of Haiku
