Drawn from references of classical haiku’s, art history, travel and life experience, Susan McElwain’s Modern 17 Syllable Thoughts for Today; A Haiku Story, is a vibrant collection of intimate reflections on nature, spirituality, love and current events. Traditional haiku contain references to the natural world. Many of Susan’s poems deviate from the standard form.

Susan McElwain believes in the idea of an harmonious world where beauty, love, compassion and peace can co-exist. Through her writing she aspires to bring to the reader a moment of appreciation and contemplation for their world.

These heartfelt poems, first posted on Instagram @haikuyyz, have attracted an international audience. Susan’s accompanying photos capture the spirit of the haiku’s.
