Scarlet Dragonfly Journal published "Forest Bathing."

On July 12, an online poetry journal "Scarlet Dragonfly Journal" published "Forest Bathing."  It is a set of English tanka & haiku I created together with Ms. Debora P. Kolodji, my best friend haiku poet.

My sincere thanks to the editor, Ms. Kathleen Trocmet.

Forest Bathing

uphill path
I slow down to breathe
the pine scent (D)

she perches
at the edge of
my straw hat
a butterfly’s siesta
in emerald breeze (M)
