Salon Literacki

Polish esteemed on-line magazine published my 11 haiku, 

my bio and the summation written on them by Robert Kania:

"The leitmotifs of many of her haiku are farewells (with loved ones who leave but she still has a strong bond with them) and transitions (well reflected by a brown spot on her hand or expressed with her glimpse in the train window). At the same time, she can surprise with humor (frog) or with an almost romantic observation (spring gust). While reading her haiku, I feel as if I were hit by a sudden storm - but it does not leave ruins, it is an element of admiration." 

(my own English translation from Polish)
