Red Sky at Night: haiku of Dan McKinley
$20.00
“Dan McKinley uses the seasons and holidays to suggest the unspooling of a person’s life. His vivid imagery is not only visual, but also sonic and olfactory. Ranging from funerals to newborns, from farm landscapes to seascapes, these are poems of care and deep awareness.”
— Gary Grieve-Carlson, Ph.D, English, Author of Poems Containing History: Twentieth-Century American Poetry’s Engagement with the Past
Description
“Haiku by McKinley convoke delight, mystery, and nostalgia. Some simply are adroit, haunting, or playful. While all entertain, some captivate, like when the faded familiarity of the back of one’s hand gives rise to the impersonal sadness of aging and loss.”
— Harold E. Cheatham, Ph.D. Counseling. Author of Cultural Pluralism on Campus
