With only three lines, haiku is deceptively simple. It can reveal a nugget of truth, like gold. A morsel of deliciousness to be savored. An instantaneous transportation into another world. It can change your consciousness. Or it can just make you laugh. Leave Us in the Now , the final in Bond’s trilogy, explores how we experience the present moment—whether it’s place, time, or the company we keep. In Mysteriously , the first volume in a trilogy of her haiku, Laura Lee Bond has compiled hard-won nuggets of universal truth. In the atmospheric Watercolor-Rendered Words , the second in the trilogy, Bond’s poetry paints images of the natural world aided by the wind, a splash and a laugh.
