Passing Thoughts is a compilation of succinct poems—haiku, senryu, tanka, cherita, and more—offering glimpses into the author’s thoughts and emotions during his mid- and late-sixties, a significant phase of life. One distinctive characteristic of these forms is their minimal reliance on detailed exposition. Instead, they offer hints and suggestions, encouraging readers to engage their imagination and fill in the gaps.

John J. Han, Ph.D., is Professor of English and Creative Writing, as well as Associate Dean of the School of Humanities and Theology at Missouri Baptist University.
