NeverEnding Story, July 2021
Translated into Chinese by Chen-ou Liu:
I carry
an ocean within
my pocket . . .
this blue lace agate
etched with ancient tides
Honourable Mention
2018 Fleeting Words Tanka Competition
Chen-ou Liu's Comments:
An implicit simile is effectively established between L2 and L4 in this visually and emotionally evocative and symbolically rich tanka.

small(holding)
crab-apple wine
the dance floor dad built
in the orchard
the scent of hay
wafts over our pasture . . .
we breathe deeply
wheat gum
our laugh lines etched
with dust
a slice of moon
dangles from the auger . . .
rusty combine
barren fields
the scattered bones
of our farm
the jangle
of a tin roof leaving home . . .
desolate prairie
