I've just published my first book, Ghost Maps: Poems for Carl Hruska, which won the CBC Canadian Literary Award and is currently short-listed for the League of Canadian Poets award for best book of poetry by a woman. I live, as you might guess, in Canada -- in Kitchener, Ontario. Haiku are an old passion for me.
I keep a daily weblog at www.vividpieces.net, and can be reached by e-mail at erin (at) vividpieces.net

dusk
the returning birds
chatter louder than us
late night rain
an unmoored canoe
chatters endlessly
gray snow slush,
stepping up the bus door —
our boots’ sound.
midday sun bath
dark corner beckons —
gus
–
dog days, a memory
raindrops invade my dreams
============
ghost
shadowy movement, corner of the eye
chills the heart
—
intriguing work, erin
chattering of teeth-
the bus is
late again
memories, and aging pains-
winter dawn brings hope
of one more spring
