"The Best Haiku annual anthology is a creative and concise collection of winning writers from around the world who submitted their poetry to be judged by a panel of four Haiku Crush ( HaikuCrush.com ) judges. The traditional and modern haiku in this collection were chosen by the judges for their originality in capturing observations and personal experiences -- and their ability to entertain, inspire, and to sometimes reveal the less obvious moments in life." -- Stephen FitzGerald, editor
