Each haibun-part prose poem, part haiku-becomes both a love letter and a mirror, reflecting how two poets can write not just beside each other, but \u003ci\u003ethrough\u003c\/i\u003e one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpanding on the experiment begun in \u003ci\u003eHot Pink Moon\u003c\/i\u003e, this book deepens the dialogue between poem body and verse, earth and sky, self and other. The result is an intimate duet that pulses with wonder, humor, and tenderness-proof that poetry, like the moon, reveals its truest light in reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePraise:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDid You See the Moon Honey\u003c\/i\u003e is the second 30-day haibun cycle in a form created by Dozier and Green in this outstanding follow-up to \u003ci\u003eHot Pink Moon\u003c\/i\u003e. Each haibun skillfully links haiku and prose and is further linked through a well-crafted daisy chain of shared words, with the last stem looping back to the first bloom to complete the haibun crown. Momentum builds as the evolving prompt primes a dynamic volley between the poets that elevates both intimate and everyday moments. At a time when contemporary haibun is exploding with innovation, the haibun crown is a welcome and ingenious expansion to the range of possibilities.\u003cbr\u003e-Kat Lehmann, author of \u003ci\u003eNo Matter How It Ends a Bluebird's Song\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat an exhilarating romp! Half the fun in this book is seeing how each haibun becomes a springboard for the next, catapulting the reader into new worlds, the authors finding imaginative leaps from even the most uncommon words and phrases: \u003ci\u003epalimpsest\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ebioluminescence\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ememento mori\u003c\/i\u003e ... The other half is simply enjoying each haibun on its own. As I did with their first collection of haibun crown, \u003ci\u003eHot Pink Moon\u003c\/i\u003e, I finished\u003ci\u003e Did You See the Moon Honey\u003c\/i\u003e feeling amazed, admiring, and, most of all, joyous.\u003cbr\u003e-Rich Youmans, editor of\u003ci\u003e Contemporary Haibun Online\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen's meditative precision and Dozier's energetic spontaneity weave into a dialogue that is both intimate and expansive, where each haibun builds upon the last in a continuous thread.
