Link in Bio! Reviews on 'Thunderheads,' my haiku collection, available now! Whether it’s a quail in the thicket, or a fallen hickory blocking the trail, Joseph Fulkerson’s masterful haiku points without pointing, allowing us, the reader, to listen, take notice, and measure the spacebetween our own selves and any given moment. Yet, somehow, just as masterfully, we can hear Joseph’s one still voice, echoing, long and long, off the canyon walls. A voice we won’t soon forget. Robin White, editor Akitsu Quarterly "Thunderheads" is a gem. Joseph Fulkerson is an old soul. The poems in his newest volume scatter the seeds of ancient wisdom across the wild nature of Kentucky. The book is a blessing, a gift, a treasure. I offer high praise for "Thunderheads." Ron Whitehead, Poet, Writer, Editor, Publisher These are poems of the outdoors—of farmland, creeks and woods—as well as the creatures (and occasional humans) that inhabit that space. Joseph Fulkerson shows us this world one carefully crafted moment at a time. A remarkable collection! Susan Antolin, editor, Acorn: a Journal of Contemporary Haiku These are gentle expressions of a commute through the seasons, and their days. The quiet utterances of each day is so easily overlooked, but here they are recorded. Alongside many themes are those about health, and loss: One such haiku is about a graveside vigil and rain collecting in a much loved one’s name. This book acts as a timely nudge, to remind us, of what can be so easily overlooked, and neglected. Make some private time, and forget about the noise and bustle, as you dip into silence and calm. Alan Summers co-founder, Call of the Page “Fulkerson tightens his focus on imagery in the form of haiku in thunderheads. He takes the classic style and conjures scenes of nature and loss; how life continues in mourning and rebirth.” Tim Heerdink, author of Razed Monuments, The Human Remains, and Red Flag and Other Poems #haiku #haikupoet #poems #kentuckystatepoetrysociety #poetrycommunityofinstagram #haikupoetry #haikusofinstagram #haikupoem #haikuofinstagram #haikucommunity #nature #naturelover https://www.instagram.com/p/CJYw53qJMQF/?igshid=16ukjlfmiplvg
