Bio Sketch
Jo
Balistreri began writing haiku in 2014. She has two books of poetry
published by Bellowing Ark Press and two chapbooks by Tiger's Eye Press
and is grateful, but she has found her happiness with the haiku
community. They have been generous with hospitality, encouragement and
time. Jo sees haiku as a way of life she wants to live within.
A delicious moment is keenly captured in this imagistic haiku bookmarked by evocative olfactory imagery.
