198,95 kr. Poet Rodney Nelson's home region, the Red River prairie, has been called a valley but is in fact a seabed with hidden beaches rimming it. The native and restored grassland of Felton Prairie is up on one of these. Nelson walks there often and has borrowed its name for this collection of poems.

198,95 kr. Rodney Nelson entered into a "late flowering" at an age when most poets are content to write blurbs and accept honors on what they have already written. The turn of the millennium marked a return to poetry for him-he had been a novelist and a playwright-and to his own amazement, new work would not stop coming. At the same time, the publication of his poetry in burgeoning electronic journals introduced him to a wider readership than he had ever known. Nelson's recent work has seen print, too. There have been chapbooks and books. But Cross Point Road is his first major collection. "It would not do to try to put content or theme before art," he claims; however, readers will note the prevalence of western American landscape behind and within his lines, especially that of his native northern Great Plains. Cross Point Road is in part Nelson's tribute to the world he has found outside the windshield.

- This Life
118,95 kr. How easy it is to take for granted and overlook the everyday things that compose this life: from fresh blueberries for breakfast to the flannel pillowcases that make the winter nights of sleep more comfortable. In Sticky Notes Haiku, these seemingly ordinary and nearly invisible objects are moved to center stage where they can be acknowledged, seen and appreciated for their true significance. Along with that which we value most--friends, family, truth--these matter, too, and rightly deserve our attention. Especially in light of the pandemic, take a moment, look around, and cherish the little wonders that enrich and sustain your life.between morning tea& morning meditation waking up*open window -- the post-itsfluttering too*the living room clockstops telling time so do I*from onesticky note to another this life* no life is ever fully completea blooming and dying roseRobert Epstein, a psychotherapist living and working in the San Francisco Bay Area, is a haiku anthologist as well as a haiku poet.
