Haikus for Peace Time is a home-made book produced by Faye Lim and Ng Xi Jie / Salty Thunder. The book is intended to be a poetic amulet and blessing for a baby born in the week of three aviation disasters. Featuring cats, diapers, Robin Williams and boob popsicles, the haikus and the illustrations pack months of whimsy, doubt, eager parenting and hope into a few pages stitched together on Xi Jie’s grandmother’s sewing machine. Faye wrote the twelve haikus in one sitting while watching over her baby as he slept. It is worth noting that the more people who read the book, the more blessings for them and the baby.
