Apr. 2nd, Friday Zoom Poetry Meeting

April 2, 4:00 p.m. PDT (Apr. 3 8:00 a.m. JST), I participated in Friday Poetry Meeting presided at by Ms. Kathabela Wilson, and performed improvised reading of tanka both in English and in Japanese.

The meeting featured a collaboration of English Haiku and photos taken by Ms. Deborah P Kolodji, my best friend, when she came to Japan in April 2019.

It was a wonderful time for me to be able to relive the days when she stayed at my house.

Thank you very much, Deborah.

I sincerely hope that the days will come back soon so that we can travel back and forth between our countries.
