A midwife writes birth haiku on each beginning
In this quietly powerful collection, midwife Janelle Alier captures the fleeting, transformative moments of birth through the elegance of haiku. Written in reflection after attending more than one hundred births, these seventeen-syllable poems offer a powerful record of beginnings.
