The Art of Tanka, Issue 4, Spring/Summer 2025

my apron full

of grandmother's sage

the blue scent

of prairie horizons

after longed-for rain

The Art of Tanka, Issue 3, Fall/Winter 2024

sunlight fills

cracks in the darkness

of sorrow

we spend our lifetimes

waiting to be whole

The Art of Tanka, Issue 2, Spring/Summer 2024

the fragrance

of hyacinth fills

my senses . . .

there is no room

for sorrow today

The Art of Tanka, Issue 1, Fall/Winter 2023

crowns of snow

soften every thistle

in the pasture

your words cannot

wound me now
