<p>WINNER OF THE 2021 WOMEN'S INTERNATIONAL HAIKU CONTEST FROM SABLE BOOKS.\n"This manuscript has a global feel in spite of it being a personal experience. The poems are strong and forceful and at the same time gentle and honest. The interweaving of haiku and tanka effectively help in the arc of its narrative. Filled with a poignancy, the mood is one of resilience and bouncing back. One very important point to be noted is the healing that takes place as the pages unfold. In these times of trials and turmoil caused by Covid and war – the art of swinging back to sanity and normal life is deftly handled here. Definitely a winner!" -- Final Judge Kala Ramesh\nWritten by Julie Bloss Kelsey over a ten-year period, this book contains 65 short poems -- mainly haiku, senryu, kyoka, and tanka -- on the theme of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and recovery from childhood trauma. About the collection, she says, "I hope that this book will help those on similar journeys feel less alone."</p>
