Bio Sketch
Julie Warther serves as Midwest Regional Coordinator for the Haiku Society of America , is an associate editor at The Heron's Nest and was instrumental in establishing The Forest Haiku Walk in Millersburg, Ohio and the Seasons of Haiku Trail at The Holden Arboretum in Kirtland, Ohio.
The contrasts, physical and psychological, between the two parts of the haiku are emotionally effective.
ReplyDeleteNote: IMHO, rewriting this monostich in the form of a circle can add one more layer of menaing to the poem.
