A New Book!

A Thousand Small Wings

Please meet my recently published chapbook A Thousand Small Wings and Other Haiku of Things Too Brief to Notice.

From the Introduction:

This slender collection of tiny poems is a miniature window. It looks out on the Sonoran Desert–at least my small patch of it. This is rough, foothills country full of old growth mesquite, populated with venerable saguaro cacti and baby birds, with rattlesnakes and butterflies, hummingbirds and monsoon downpours, and of course the ever-present sun.

Through this window there are many small glimpses, each written in the form of haiku….

This is a very small book (35 pages), suitably enough, as it contains only haiku. But I hope that its captured moments and small narratives create a much larger vision of the wonder and beauties I see around me.

Through the end of December, I’m offering signed copies at $9 each, plus $4.50 shipping. These are available here on my Ko-Fi.

Otherwise, A Thousand Small Wings can be purchased anytime on Lulu here.

As many of you know, I have written quite a few haiku over the past few years. This is a particular collection which I feel belongs together in approach and style. It begins with a moth and ends with a cricket, but includes summer and winter, the wind and the moon between.

Happy reading!
