Collins has paddled down the Okavango delta, traveled the Kalahari, trekked the Serengeti, and witnessed time begin in Ngorogoro. Many of her poems have been previously published in the Asahi Haikuist Network and other discerning publications. The magnitude of her undertaking to observe and poetically record wildlife is astounding. This is your opportunity to read a carefully selected and arranged collection, fresh "out of Africa". Highly recommended reading for the armchair traveler, unless you can go see the amazing fauna and flora for yourself before it is gone.
