August 5, 4:45 p.m., U.S. time (Aug. 6, 8:45 a.m., Japan time), I participated in Wednesday Poetry Zoom Meeting presided at by Ms. Kathabela Wilson.

I performed bilingual reading (Japanese & English) of "Both sides of Ocean", which I and my best friend Ms. Deborah P Kolodji, a talented English Haiku poet, created together. This sequence is scheduled to be published in "Kokako", a New Zealand Poetry Journal.

The opportunity to share our work with the fellow members in face to face gave me a brightness under the still-on-going Corona related chaos.
