Tanka reading performance oveseas.

April 5th, I performed bilingual tanka reading at JCCCM (Japanese Canadian Cultural Center in Motreal) in Montreal, Canada. |
 |
There were some people in the audience who are familiar with tanka, and some others are not. However, everyone enjoyed the nostalgic sound and meter of Japanese. It was a great pleasure for me to share the time with them. |

Mar. 11, I participated in the spring memorial event of KAGENKI in Hiroshima for the first time in my life. |
 |

 |
Having touched with the participants' enthusiasm for anti-nuclear, it was a precious experience for me filled with a sincere prayer. |

Mr. Hiroyasu Amase, a writer, with whom I associate in "Writers association for abandoning-nuclear-power society". He helped me a lot to make my participation to the event come true. |
 |
I felt a powerful energy in young people's recitation of Tamiki Hara's poems, and in singing voice of boys & girls in Hiroshima. |

At the front of the Atomic-Bomb Memorial Dome, by the monument inscribed with Tamiki's poem. |

Mr. Kozaburo Nagatsu, secretary-general of the association of KAGENKI, served as the moderator of the session. Mr. Tokihiko Hara, a nephew of Tamiki, talked about the atomic-bomb willow. |
