Holy Haikus
by Katha Winther

A haiku is a Japanese verse form comprised of three lines of five, seven, and five syllables respectively. Holy Haikus includes over one thousand haikus complete with scripture references to encourage further Bible reading. This serious to zany poetry is very unique and a bit unusual. Everyone can learn more about the Bible in a fun, easy, quick and entertaining way by reading Holy Haikus. People of all ages (youth to senior citizens) and all knowledge levels (novices to theologians) can glean something from these simple, easy-to-read poems. Various chapter listings include Bible animals, books, botany, clothes, food, miracles, music, parables, places, prayers, sports, and more. There's even a haiku chapter on Bible passions! The Bible is a top-seller in our society today. Let Holy Haikus help you learn about the Good Book.
