deafening rain
we talk of the dead
in whispers

Bio Sketch
LeRoy
Gorman lives in Napanee, Ontario. His poetry, much of it minimalist and
visual, has appeared in publications and exhibitions worldwide. He is
the author of two dozen poetry books and chapbooks.
The poignant contrasts (deafening sound vs whispers; overwhelming force of nature vs silence of the deceased ...)between the two parts of this sound haiku is emotionally effective.
