“Haikumages” are short poems (mostly haiku and senryu-style) combined with images (mostly original photographs and graphics) by Russ Murray.

    It amazes me the way you use nature images as metaphors for human needs.

    This delicate haiku, and this delicate photograph touch me. The way you use natural images as metaphors for human feelings continues to amaze and delight me.

      Thank you. I am so glad you liked this one (a personal fave)! “Metaphors” is one of 20 names I’m considering for the first book of Haikumages…
