Canada Day, A Tanka Sequence

the tenth year
since I moved to Canada ...
my thought trails
a drifting maple leaf
that catches the sunlight

on the screen
I AM superimposed
over a maple leaf ...
rainbow flowers
blooming in the night sky

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.
