Seeds from a Birch Tree: Writing Haiku and the Spiritual Journey

Rating:
Summary: Engaging
Review: While I don't subscribe to the 5-7-5 formula that Strand insists on, I find this book very instructive and inspiring. Strand invites the reader into nature as refuge, as spiritual path, and the writing of haiku as an expression of this experience. It has been a book that I turn to during those dry spells that we all fall into and it never fails to ignite the magic spark of "ordinary mind".
