Maureen Coady • Spring Day: A Kasen Renga

Lost in a Moment haiku by Maureen Coady Life is an incredible journey. Nature, people, experiences are only a few things that cause us to realize that life is full of moments worthy of our careful attention. As the reader, my hope is that you intensely experience some of these instants caught in words along with me. These haiku stem from my intense passions: my faith in God, relationships, and curious moments. I am a person who experiences life deeply; as you examine these haiku, allow them to move you in a powerful way. Let the moment take over. Lost in a Moment . . .

"Lost in a Moment" captures ideas and unique instances in a very special way. Maureen has a way of capturing very real and tangible moments out of several abstract ideas, such as religious faith. The works truly represent the author's character and deepest passions. Her love of God, her attention to the simple moments in life, and her gratefulness for the life she has been given all shine through this marvelous collection of haiku. I'm sure you will be moved, and greatly enjoy reading this collection!           —Leigh Ann Kitchell
