Bamboo Hut Vol. 1 Issue 2

     Here are my five tanka included in the 2nd issue of Bamboo Hut.

all the things
your didn't want to
talk about . . .
now I'm left with
crumpled leaves               


not knowing
if my heart will ever
stop hurting . . .
the train passes me by
one more time


as you drift away
I cherish the sweeping light
of our memories . . .
the darkness of the night
brightens all the stars


days after
the memorial . . .
I find comfort
watering his plants
for the first time


sunlight dance
on the bedroom wall . . .
how my heart flutters
with the way you say
good morning
