July 8, Wednesday Zoom Poetry Meeting

July 8, 7:00 p.m., U.S. time (July 9, 11:00 a.m., Japan time), I participated in Wednesday Poetry Zoom Meeting presided at by Ms. Kathabela Wilson.

I played percussion and performed Japanese-English bilingual reading of "Meiji Jingu", which is a new sequence composed with Haiku written by Ms. Deborah P Kolodji and Tanka by me.

I was inspired by many artistic presentations made in the meeting such as various styles of poems presented by new and regular members, Shakuhachi play by Mr. Rick Wilson, and paintings and drawings by Mr. Robert Stewart.

Thank you very much for the meaningful time.
