H Is for Haiku: A Treasury of Haiku from A to Z by Sydell Rosenberg

5.0


"...Sydell Rosenberg’s haiku invite
children and their parents to slow
down, linger, and pay attention to the
moments we often overlook."

Haiku. What is haiku's magic?

Haiku winnows.

Haiku potters.

Haiku shimmers.

Haiku looks you straight in the eye.

Haiku winks.

Lovely.
