a drop of pond, haiku of Brad Bennett

Description

Winner of a Touchstone Distinguished Books Award 2016 from The Haiku Foundation!

Brad Bennett’s first full-length collection of English-language haiku focuses on the natural phenomena to be found in his geographical vicinity, and the relationships to be noted therein. He teaches elementary school in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and has taught haiku to children for over twenty years. Brad loves to walk in local conservation areas, Audubon sanctuaries, wildlife refuges, national parks, and Japanese gardens.

“From school gardens to moonless sky, streetlights to subway to bison wallow, Bennett’s haiku take us on a journey through the wonder of the everyday, often nuanced with wry humor and always with depth of perception.”

— Jeannie Martin

          a drop of pond
          at the end of a beak
          setting sun

     after the bombing
     the subway train
     skips a stop
