At the moonviewing event at Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden in the suburbs of Pasadena, California, I performed reading of moon-related poems selected from Manyoshu as well as some from my works as contemporary tanka. |
 |
I was more than happy to receive appreciation towards Japanese 5-7 syllables sound from non-Japanese speakers, and it was a precious moment for me to deepen my respect for our culture and literature. The event organizer, Kathabela Wilson; TSA - Tanka Society of America Secretary. |

I was very glad to perform reading in front of wonderful audience including those who are from Madagascar and Mauritius. At the same time, I felt strong sense of responsibility as a performer to deliver the messages. Mr. Jean P G Aznar, Ms. Brigitte Pellat, Mr. Metwally Gamal, and Ms. Vera Levy helped me with French translation. Ms. Vera Levy, my friend in Paris, took a part of reading in French. |
