Here is an example of his verse:Anyways. I'd like to nominate D. LaSpina aka @dbooster here on Steemit. He's an american photographer and haiku poet living in Japan. Not only he writes his own poems, he translates a lot of the classic Japanese ones into English, providing explanation of things or objects in the verses so that people who are unfamiliar with them could get the real feel of what is being described, which I find pretty cool.
