Orlino C. Baldonado Bücher

This book is a compilation of 278 haikus together with 90 zen images. The 5-7-5 syllable format was not strictly adhered to allowing haikus to be written about different subjects in eight categories: Seasons and Weather, Busy People, Man-made Places, Plants and Flowers, Animals and Creatures, The Earth, Moon and Sky, and Feelings and Reflections. A title has been assigned to each haiku. The zen images are separate from the haikus and are to be enjoyed while reading the haikus.

Ofrio was a sea otter living among the kelp forest off the coast of California. One day, there was an oil spill which devastated his ocean world. He was captured by human rescuers who cleaned the oil from him, nursed him back to good health, and released to the environment.
