I am still catching up with published poetry. Blithe Spirit is the publication of the British Haiku Society. They selected two haiku and two tanka of mine to publish in the winter issue.
Blithe Spirit Fall/Winter Issue 2022
1.
brevity
the ripeness
of a pear
2.
children
fragile as blossoms
learning to let go
3.
fragrant spices, each
with a story to tell,
a bit of this, dash of that
my pen moves as if
propelled by a stranger
4.
scent of beeswax
melting as we draw
invisible designs
on our pysanky eggs—
forgotten childhood
.
