Biljana Billie Bokun aka Lora Dober is a poet and photographer from Denver, Colorado. She started publishing haiku and tanka in Karolina Rijecka (Croatia). Some of her haiku include:


Snowflake falls
on my palm and melts
like a thought



I walk alone
this restless morning: patches
of snow in the grass



Lonely seagull
flies above the world
towards the sunlight



On the blue water
seagulls land and become
white flowers
