Press Release Summary = Bird Haiku, a new book by Edward Weiss, marries the elegance of the Japanese poetry form with the beauty of the avian world.
Press Release Body = San Diego, CA: A new book, by Edward Weiss, is all grace. 'Bird Haiku' celebrates the beauty of poetry as much as it does the beauty of the world of birds.
"It is remarkable how suited the haiku - a short, beautiful art form - seems to describe birds," says Edward Weiss of Wisteria Press. "In 'Bird Haiku,' I have brought together my love for birds with my love for haiku poetry."
The beauty and simplicity of the haiku - a three-line, syllable-driven Japanese poem format - make for poignant, beautiful descriptions of our feathered friends. For example, Weiss writes:
"Ducks skitter Across the lake. Winter light"
Weiss, who blogs on haiku and uploads regular haiku podcasts, is a master of the form, stripping it of artifice and reveling in the sheer grace of the poetry. He is the author of earlier books like "Seashore Haiku," and his "Haiku for Gardeners" will be released in December.
