Bio Sketch
Marilyn
Humbert lives in the Northern suburbs of Sydney NSW Australia. Her
tanka and haiku appear in international and Australian journals,
anthologies and online. Some of her free verse poems have been awarded
prizes in competitions and some have been published.
Through the visually riveting juxtaposition of windblown leaves chasing windblown leaves and the [full] moon, an eerie and yet beautiful moment is keenly captured in this atmospheric haiku.
