This beautiful picture book about a young aspiring poet and his grandfather shows that the answer lies all around us--if we take the time to look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter Kiyoshi watches his grandfather, Eto, compose his delicate haiku, he wonders out loud: Where do poems come from? His grandfather answers by taking him on a walk through their city, where they see a cat perched on a hill of oranges; hear the fluttering of wings; imagine what's behind a tall wall; and discuss their walk, with each incident inspiring a wonderful new haiku from Eto.
