Captures everyday moments from the exquisite to the mundane. Profane, funny, sad, and so much unexpected beauty. patio furniture where we laughed now covered in snow”

“@Catherine Davis Thank you for this rec! Delightful book of haikus shared between seven friends over a year in 1996 (Michael Stipe being one of them). It’s a cozy and quiet little book and I love this page below. Makes me want to start writing haikus on postcards to my friends 💌”
