Bio Sketch
Lysa Collins is an environmentalist who currently lives on the west coast of British Columbia, overlooking the Strait of Georgia, where she writes haiku and other short forms of poetry. Her poems appear locally, nationally, and internationally, in a variety of print and online publications.
Lysa's ginko (haiku walk) haiku on the scent of spring (hyacinths blooming in spring) is written in a new and fresh way.
ReplyDelete[The emotionally suggestive power of poetry] comes from looking back to a fleeting moment in a floating world. The transitoriness is what creates a sense of the [everyday] sacred.
-- paraphrasing Allen Ginsberg
Excellent piece, I really enjoyed it Lysa!
