Comprising just three short lines, haiku are deceptively simple ... like the night sky, or the hoot of an owl. Or like the simple elegance of this 7x9- inch calendar, with its curated selection of Japanese art and calming use of white space. Written by 17th- through 20th-century poets, the haiku themselves perfectly complement the artwork with a quiet sense of harmony. “If you put out the lamp,” one poet tells us, “distant stars enter your window.” In Haiku, such gentle illumination will grace your days.
