    About this ebook

    This collection of haiku poetry from Bernard Lionel Einbond is a spectacular.

    Part one includes Rising Darkness, Countenances of the Poor, and The Coming Indoors, then part two concludes with Insomnia in Haiku Form. Each poem expressed paints a simple mental picture of each experience with Bernard:

    -The bright one star
    in the black wide sky observe
    the old wise owl.

    -Have you ever heard
    the sound of snowflakes falling
    on the snow? Listen.
