Holiday Season, Two Editions

"Same Old" Edition

Silent Night ...
the blink
of a star

Boxing Day morning ...
two dogs rest in the shadow
of a church

2013 Stone-Cold Edition

a row of trees coated
with a layer of ice
Silent Night from afar

our Me-rry Chri-st-ma-s
punctuated
by ice pellets

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.
