an announcement of a new book of poetry


Coming soon: Tranquility: An Anthology of Haiku by Literary Revelations
Gabriela Marie Milton (editor)

       The world is grim, and I continue to pray that each of us on this planet will have peace and light.
       Amidst all these, Literary Revelations is preparing to release Tranquility: An Anthology of Haiku. May the book bring beauty and a moment of meditation and calm to the lives of those who read it.
       This book is a book of poetry as well as a book of art.
       As I wrote in the foreword to this book, “Each haiku redefines temporality as an axis mundi. Think about it.” Our relation with ourselves and divinity begins and ends in us. I hope the beauty of this book will make you think so.

peace is elusive
though peace lives inside each so
access irony

clc—admittedly more about nature that is human (alone) rather than outside (too or first)

As I’ve mentioned, I find haiku a challenging craft. Maybe if I knew Japanese, though I’d have to know Japan as well (more than I know now). Nonetheless some haiku of mine—five in all (each one invited to send five)—will be published in an upcoming collection by Literary Revelations (https://literaryrevelations.com/). I’m keenly grateful to the publishing house for accepting my work to share with others. More specifically, I'm grateful to Gabriela Marie Milton who invited and received submissions. (If I understand the process.)
More details as I have them. Thank you for reading and thus encouraging my work.
