This is a lovely review, Pranav. I sampled the preface and a few poems, and, as with you, it was my first experience with haiku-style poetry. I loved Lynda's prayer garden and the house wrens, both in prose and in verse. I agree that this unique book that invites us to Lynda's private world full of joy we often overlook is worthy of all stars!

I like the word soulful. That's what this book does, it feeds the soul. Everything that's good for the soul is in this book. To hear the nature's garden songs with them and to feel the peace that this book gives.

The poem beautifully blends vivid imagery and deep emotion, drawing the reader into its world. The poet’s use of metaphor is both subtle and powerful, adding layers of meaning that linger long after reading. With seamless rhythm and carefully chosen words, this piece leaves a lasting impact, showcasing the poet’s talent and insight into the human experience. A truly remarkable work.

One thing I particularly like about this review is how the reviewer connects personally with the poetry and shares specific examples that illustrate the emotional impact of the book. The inclusion of a favorite poem and the thoughtful analysis of its meaning effectively convey the profound effect that the haiku had on the reviewer. Great job!
