Cleave the wood: I am there; lift the stone and thou shalt find me there! Gospel of Thomas 77 (Doresse).Haiku extracts miracles from the mundane and presents them as pithy three-line, seventeen-syllable poems whose subjects range from cleft wood to stone to any and all aspects of nature.With imagery minimal as the dry ink brushstrokes of haiga paintings, haiku culls the reader's attention to experience nature with renewed awareness and insight. This book represents a westerner's attempt at the ancient Japanese form (with variations) as he endeavors to relay the joy haiku have brought him.
