Aug. 23, Friday Poetry Meeting at Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden

On August 23, I performed a Japanese-English Tanka reading at the Friday Poetry Meeting held at Storrier Stearns Japanese Garden.

This was the 200th International Japanese-English Tanka reading (not including Zoom reading) that I started in 2005.

I feel there is some deep meaning that this presentation in memory of my soulmate Debbie turned out to be such a special milestone.
