In a world that is often fast-paced and overwhelming, it can be difficult to find moments of peace and stillness. But haiku, a traditional Japanese form of poetry, offers a way to slow down and appreciate the beauty of the present moment.

Haiku poems are typically written in three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the third line. They often use simple language and imagery to capture a moment in time or a feeling. Haiku poems have the ability to transport readers out of their busy minds and into the present moment.

Haiku for Today's World is a collection of haiku poems by renowned poet Jane Hirshfield. These poems offer a unique perspective on the modern world, capturing the beauty and wonder of everyday life while also addressing the challenges and complexities of our time.
