S.M. Shuford Poetry Collection #3
Infinite Summer
"Always and only, the coronal rose
Soulmate of a youth in fragments"
Infinite Summer is spun with a love that peaks and dies like the sun. Inspired by the dual nature of fairytales, this collection of poems is heavy with magic, ghosts, and memories lost to the golden enchantments of a summer's day. Infinite Summer is in equal parts haunting and charming, a macabre kind of romance that only an imp's curse could bring about.
The third entry in the S.M. Shuford Poetry Collection, Infinite Summer contains over thirty poems and an exclusive introduction piece.

These selections of haikus are very vivid in their imagery and paint a picture of a variety of different feelings. They discuss pain, suffering, hope, and love. Through the author's choice of words, you can sense the feelings of the poem's subjects. With 60 different haikus in the collection, it's easy to find several different ones to connect to.
My favorite one was:
"Barbs of hate sting me
But apathy soils my bones
From the marrow out"
I love this one because it reminds you that even when others are unkind or mistreat you or your work, that being apathetic is so much worse. I probably connected with this one because I'm a writer myself, but it just spoke to me the most.
For anyone who likes to read haikus, poetry, or just wants to read something with a different vibe to it, I would recommend this collection of haikus.
