a winter star

Bio Sketch
Freddy
Ben-Arroyo is a retired professor of Structural Engineering at the
Technion--Israel Institute of Technology. Born in Bulgaria, he emigrated
to Israel during WWII and since then lives in Haifa. He began writing
haiku 25 years ago, after Zen training. He is married, has one daughter,
three grandchildren and two great-grandsons.
Freddy's haiku has an immediacy that evokes the reader's emotional response, and its tone and mood is well conveyed through this evocative image of a lone man facing one winter star.
