Wild Orchids: A Collection of Haiku & Senryu

By: Tefft, Leon

Wild Orchids contains 300 contemporary haiku and senryu poems, each carefully crafted in the free-form style. This collection is pure poetry - 300 moments distilled to their essence. Poems include:

200 haiku arranged across five sections: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Muki (without season) 100 senryu - the comedy, tragedy and satire of human nature

Among these poems, 30 have been previously published in poetry journals and anthologies.

Wild Orchids is the third collection from the author of Haiku Traditions and Haiku Evolution. Where those books offered introductions to each poetry form, this collection trusts the poems to speak for themselves. Pause with them. Let them settle. Return to them later and see what they reveal.
