Christmas is miraculous and Humbled Wise Men, Christmas Haikus is a celebration of its magic. These poems are like Christmas cards to the reader. Go to a manger in Bethlehem, hear the churchbells ring, see a lone Christmas tree while you're stuck in traffic and get home to the joy of family. These images and more all make Humbled Wise Men a Christmas miracle in itself.Praise for humbled wise men Christmas haikus-"We all come to holidays with our own set of expectations, memories, joys and sorrows. Dan Flore, one of Late Night's Favorite Poets, has put together a charming collection of his own American take on Holiday Haiku. In his insightful, sensitive style he turns his eyes and his heart to the Christmas spirit.It's a generous holiday gift for all." Late Night PoetsABOUT THE AUTHORDaniel J. Flore III's poems have appeared in many publications. His other book Lapping Water is also available from GenZ Publishing. He spends his Christmas' with his wife Jamie and their cat Tulip.

Home and Other Places I've Yet to See is a book constantly raising its lights to their fullest intensity, glaring in the eyes of its reader, and its bulbs not only burn out but explode and shatter across its pages. With poems like headaches and cold compresses, like hell, earth, and heaven, Flore navigates subjects like God, love, sickness, health, travel, benches to stop for rest, and destinations. Daniel Flore lived in seven different locations and had two stints at homeless shelters in the three years it took him to write Home and Other Places, and the collection shows the sheer living Flore accomplished in that time. Climb into a secret crawlspace in your mind and open up Home and Other Places.
