The Planets Companion
by Wendy Van Camp
Book 1.5 of the poetry series: Scifaiku Astropoetry
For many years, I have had a selected scifaiku reading list from my debut poetry collection “The Planets.” I have used this reading list as the basis for this small chapbook of poetry. While the original “The Planets” is strictly poetry except for the chapter headings, this smaller chapbook is illustrated fully and highlights each of the small poems in a more artistic manner. If you come to my readings and just want the poems I read, this chapbook will be a perfect small bite of my scifaiku poetry.
Take a literary journey through our solar system featuring poems inspired by the nine planets. All the scifaiku and astropoetry inspire you to seek out and learn more about the history of human exploration and the physical characteristics of these fascinating worlds.
