Haiku U: 301
Considering haiku, TED GUEVARA offers fresh exhilaration in this collection of 301 haiku. It is essential to know that the original Japanese haiku was measured by “breaths” instead of English syllables. Guevara takes this to heart. He expands on the essence of haiku. Traditionally, haiku partakes in the simplest of wildlife, its silence, and its song. Guevara agrees, but to him what could be more lush, poignant, and unpredictable than our breathy human nature.

Mr. Guevara has published five novels, including True Feel; and four books of poetry, including Nice.

imaginative
I like how short and snappy and imaginative these poems are. They really painted a vivid and impactful picture in your mind. The only thing I didn’t like was that some of the poems didn’t translate well. Like you can see they were better in their original language.

There are some haikus in here that are inspirational.
Unfortunately there were others that I just couldn't figure out how to appreciate.
But I did appreciate the chance to have a look!
