Sobre IBD

“Judith E. P. Johnson has that crucial characteristic for haiku poets, an ability to notice the minor miracles of ordinary existence – a blackbird bathing in a dog’s bowl, daisies ankle-deep on a lawn, the reflection of a jasmine flower in a rain puddle – these are acute observations that transform everyday life into fine haiku.  When she writes, ‘running along the beach the wind and I’, she invites us on a poetic journey where we can share her experience of Waking from Dreams.” – Stephen Addiss, author of The Art of Haiku

  • Polishing the Silver
    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. 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....

  • A Christmas Posy
    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ’A Christmas Posy is a wonderful collection of haiku. A longing for Christmas is in these pages. We all have our own Christmas memories; the only difference is that it is summer and a kookaburra is laughing as in the song we sang in distant days. However, there may be another aspect to Christmas. Another Christmas story would be in the heart of the reader.’ - Toshio Kimura, Pro...

  • earth from the moon
    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ’Judith EP. Johnson’s haiku are a quiet seam of gold. Time and again she offers finely seen acclamations of the ordinary and everyday, in celebration of the quotidian. She sees the earth not just from the moon, with the distance of objectivity, but also intimately, with subjective touches, from close at hand. These are poems to roll on your tongue, to taste with the heart.’ - M...

    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ’Each haiku is not a mere poetic sketch, but a journey to explore the mysteries hidden behind. Day Moon Fading suggests the secrets in familiar matters. The midday moon, not lying on the surface, is watching over the poet from the sky throughout in the collection. Day Moon Fading is a fantastic haiku collection.’ - Toshio Kimura, Professor of English, Nihon University, Tokyo ...

  • briefly in spring
    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ’Judith E.P. Johnson’s haiku have a down-to-earth flavour reminiscent of Issa, one of Japan’s four great haiku masters. Her haiku are like little sake cups of imagery. Read at a gulp, or sipped and savoured, they capture moments and movement, a connection to a natural object, or a wry social observation. Above all, these tiny polished gems reveal a keen sense of wonder. They ca...

  • Only the Waves
    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ‘True to the grandmasters of times now past (like Issa), rather than projecting herself onto her subjects, Judith E.P. Johnson allows her subjects to breathe new life through her haiku and senryu. Precious cowrie shells culled from sparse windswept Tasmanian seascapes across a lifetime coolly reflected upon, her poems – in a slow burn of sly wistfulness and whimsicality – help ...

  • where it leads
    Judith E.P. Johnson
    ‘One feels accompanied by the poet in these pages; through gardens, along country roads and city streets, along windswept coastlines and out on the water. You will encounter many invitations to pause, to share an observation of something tiny close-up or to admire some distant expanse. We also ponder occasional memories and wonderings about times long ago. There is karumi here,...
