The time we spend in school up to and including High School is atime that is rich with new experiences. Friendships with students andteachers, sports, and the continuing importance of language both spokenand written are critical to us when we grow into what is calledadulthood. In point of fact what is called youth stays with us for the restof our lives. There is angst, there is lost love, there are authority figureswho annoy and sometimes mistreat or misjudge you throughout yourlife. Haiku and senryu are truly a journal of your life.In this collection, Elizabeth Crocket has given us a glimpse into herpast, and into her future. For better or for worse we carry with us all ofthe experiences in our life. They are though much less of a burden ifthey are in the form of a poem. Haiku are short poems that are smallreminders of the larger issues in life. Look at them as bookmarks forthe larger event stored in your memory.
