The words written so beautiful,

But it's gone in flitting seconds,

Like the words never exist.

That's my problem with haiku. May be because it's too short to tug my heart and make an impression. My problem.

One haiku per page makes for a quick read. 15 minutes maybe? I'm sure I'll read them again... it was really enjoyable. Partly I liked it because it reminds me of me. I dabble in haiku myself, and I like the idea of writing one every day.

Loved this book. It's full of passion and love. I just bought it tonight and have read through it twice. I know poetry is quick to read, but this was really fast. So many beautiful poems to digest though. I'm certain I will read it again and again.

Again, another stunning collection by Tyler Gregson. I love reading his interpretation on love and his poetry really makes me feel something, you know? Since these were all haikus about love, they were really straightforward and didn’t require much thinking on my part. I again liked how there was variety in the media used in this book - there were his classic typewriter poems, ones written on little slips of paper, and typed ones with an image to accompany the poem. I wish I owned all of his books because they are so good and I want to reread them all.

This book has been on my "to-read" list since it was released. Thankfully, I found some spare time and sat down, plowing right through it in less than an hour.

Each Haiku is beautifully composed. Gregson managed to package every feeling of love within his words. I can't wait to read more of his work.

the people that we let stay,
the things that we keep.”

God, I love TKG! ❤️

I’d forgotten about Gregson’s lovely haiku work. This was wonderful and impacting. Glad to have picked it up.

I love a good haiku, and this book has so many. Some of them are a little cringe in my opinion, but they’re still good. I also can’t complain about starting the new year with poetry.
