Haiku Insprired Poems of a solitary winter 1999 on Lake Inez in Western Montana. The whiteness of the frozen lake, the gray sky, the pale moon, the constant flurry of snowflakes, all provided the opportunity to look inward and to awaken. The brevity of the poems captures the beauty of the moment. Woodblock cover, design and printing by two Swiss artists; Andrea Rothlin and Martin Wallimann.

poems worth sitting with,
By A Customer
This review is from: Drips Gurgles Chirps (Paperback)
In the winter of 1998, Barry Schieber undertook a contemplative retreat at his house on a small lake in Montana. He watched; he listened; he felt. He saw in the lake a reflection of his own mind-often roiled and agitated at the surface, disturbed sometimes by silent tracks in the snow, at others by noisy, even raucous, visitors, but always, always, still and silent at depth. As spring came, he thawed, a bit. He healed, at least some. These poems, in short, haiku-like form, contain his experience. They are worth sitting with, at some length.

Magical poems, Truely inspiring,
By A Customer
This review is from: Drips Gurgles Chirps (Paperback)
Magically Barry Schieber took me out of a busy Summer in California to the quietude of a Montana Winter. These little poems have a great effect. Not only did they take me to Montana again, they also inspired me to start writing my own little poems. If I'll ever have the courage to publish them, it will be because of DRIPS GURGLES CHIRPS. Thank you Barry Schieber!
