“Astonishingly moving haiku…”
Yomiuri Shimbun Japanese newspaper (2002)
His haiku “...humanises the city.”
— Takashi Nonin, Mainichi Daily News of Japan
"...you are one of the poets I have been most interested in. When I began composing haiku, I studied about English language haiku through your descriptive literature…I love your haiku style.”
— Keiko Izawa (Yokohama, Japan)
