A Wild Blue Sky: haiku & senryu

Ben Gaa

This is the latest full-length collection of contemporary English-language haiku & senryu from Ben Gaa, your friendly neighborhood haiku poet and host of Haiku Talk on YouTube. The book furthers Gaa's explorations of nature and human nature through the seasons of the living world as well as concrete urban landscapes. These well-crafted poems will grab your attention and linger with you a while, asking to be read again. Gaa is the author of two other full-length collections of haiku & senryu, One Breath (Spartan Press 2020), and the Touchstone Award-winning Wishbones (Folded Word 2018), as well as four chapbooks, HIGH/COO award winner One Note Moon (Brooks Books 2023), Fiddle in the Floorboards (Yavanika Press 2018), the Pushcart nominated Wasp Shadows (Folded Word 2014), and Blowing on a Hot Soup Spoon (Poor Metaphor Design 2014). Ben is a graduate of the Knox College Creative Writing program and works as a Digital Product Owner for MilliporeSigma. He currently lives in St. Louis, MO, with his rascal of a cat, Anastasia.
