Poetry in the Moment: The Smell of the Moon (Solo Renku)

dappled dusk
the chirping of crickets
breaks bell-notes

eyes upon the dripping
moonlit lane

full moon
the smell of steamed rice cakes
fills an attic room

Getting Something Read (April,22, 2010)

Ripples from a Splash

My book is now available through www.lulu.com [Liu's] haiku resonates the Asian spirit, and makes use of aesthetics in a continuum of time that is permanent and impermanent; the process more important than the subjective specificity of object bias found in most Anglo-Western haiku like poems. His poetry demand to be interpreted by the informed reader. They do not tell all, are not based on an “aha” moment, and have no definitive ending. More importantly they give meaning and voice to the unsaid, the magic inherent in Japanese poetry. -- Poetry Review by Robert D. Wilson, Editor-in-chief of Simply Haiku.
