Bio Sketch

Keitha Keyes lives in Sydney, Australia in a small house decorated with ship models, antique irons and trivets. And a cocker spaniel. Her retirement would be very empty without the lure of writing tanka, haiku, cherita and other poetry.

  1. The opening line sets the theme while the unexpected yet relatable last line enhances the "haiku" aspect of the haiku.
