the fingertips of a glassblower, haiku by Bill Cooper

Description

Bill Cooper’s third collection with Red Moon Press, shows his increasing mastery of the genre. As Scott Mason observes, “Cooper is that rare poet blessed with both a penetrating eye and a gentle, compassionate wit.” Brad Bennett adds “Cooper shows a deft and artistic ability to draw on various elements to create miniature symphonies with each poem.” Finely crafted and full of surprise and suspense, this is a collection you will savor for a long time to come.

     daffodil shoots
     the soldier who moves
     only his eyes

          A-bomb day
          the uneven loops
          of an 8

     in her language
     no words for when or worry
     Year of the Lamb
