Sobre IBD

Haiku is the ultimate example of precision of expression and economy in form written in four line poems of seventeen syllables. The gems found here are about love, hope, people, the wonder of the natural world and the issues of fate and chance. With great attention to the venerable centuries-old Japanese form, the author gives us both moving and humorous glimpses of his particular view of the world. This book celebrates the day-to-day moments experienced such as going for a walk or noticing the birds, as well as the larger, sweeping events of life. This poetry is lovingly and expertly expressed, each syllable and word chosen with the greatest of care. Open the book, and you will be drawn into the author’s unusual, very personal style and honest voice. You will want to savor each poem, as you do a vacation day or a special weekend moment.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

    This collection of poetry is like a handful of blue and green sea glass, pearl gossamer shells, and freshly washed wet stones on soft sand, yet born of a powerful and ancient ocean. In this book we are transported to the very edge of the seashore, among birds that argue, waves that grow tired, and reeds that sing. And then, suddenly, we visit an older man, wondering, perhaps ab...
