“To write successful haiku in English, a poet would, I imagine, have to have a love of language, or languages; and would also have to have the eye of an artist and the ear of a musician. It\u2019s no surprise that Paul \u00d3 Colm\u00e1in has undertaken such a task, for he is the perfect poet for it. A gifted, craftful writer and linguist, a brilliant exponent of woodcut engravings, and a talented song-writer and muscian, he brings all his formidable gifts to bear on this beautiful collection of verse \u2013 many of the specimens netted from his \u2018haiku of the week\u2019 feature on his website. Paul has taken the traditional elements of haiku \u2013 the quick-witted perception, the flourish of a thought, the accurate observation \u2013 and cast them in an Irish mould.” \u00a0James Harpur<\/strong>\u00a0from his introduction.<\/em><\/p>\n

“These haiku and tanka are fresh, accurate, insightful and clear. They delight in our one and only world; they lift the heart, and quiet the mind.” \u00a0Theo Dorgan<\/strong><\/p>\n

“These are wonderful poems!\u00a0 They grab your attention instantly evoking strong responses with their dagger like accuracy, their spot-on images, and their sly humor.\u00a0 I have had the most delightful time reading them, and they stay with me like good poems should\u2014not something you remember, but what you cannot forget.” \u00a0Anne Mullin Burnham<\/strong><\/p>\n
