Description

... haiku, 'carvings on dew' and you "I write because creativity is the bridge that I want to traverse from creation to the creator," was my answer when quizzed as to why do I write. There was a turning in this journey from where on haiku and its related genres became my chisel and hammer to carve out that creativity and dew was the medium I found myself to be working on. Walking barefoot on grass or just gazing at blooms and buds at times while waiting for the sun to shine its rays on those pearls would make me reach out to myself and start carving my experience on them in the form of these writings. This collection of my haiku poems and the haibun and some haiga presented to you in this book are not only to share the ecstasy of that experience but the entire process of experiencing an experience itself. "Haiku is a semicircle drawn by the poet and completed by the reader," a comment by one of the accomplished haiku poets of repute precisely elucidates the intricacy of haiku reading and writing. These carvings on dew are attempt to present that semicircle to you with a hope and wish that you draw the rest of it to enjoy the manifestation of a full circle around a central experience which like the centre in a geometrical circle is the truth of the haiku and that of the entire creativity too.
