KIMO POETRYis a post-Haiku poetic form, consisting of three lines of 10, 7, and 6 syllables. This form of poetry was developed in Israel. Kimo had evolved from the need for more than 5, 7, and 5 syllables in a Haiku in Hebrew. It usually describes one frozen scene that has no movement in it. Rhyme not necessary. An excellent book for the busy reader who would like to read one a day. Vintage Illustrations added. Bonus of an Elvis Presley Mandala.

Jean Elizabeth Ward has lived equally in the North and in the South. Has traveled abroad and has a background as versified as her poetry. In September 1999 she moved into the old part of Seabrook, close to the Kemah bridge. Needing to be as close to the sea as she could be.
