Shocked and saddened to hear of Adjei Agyei-Baah’s passing. A truly pioneering #haiku #poet. I was lucky enough to publish his poetry in Wales Haiku Journal - Summer Competition 2025! and I regard this one to be among the finest we ever featured… country road the long ride through the scent of cattle gone ahead


I'm excited to announce my fifth collection, Grief's Alphabet, will be published by Seren Books this April! Here are some kind words about the book from some poets I admire.
