Selected Tanka: Sounds of Conversation Tanka

in spring rain
amidst falling cherry petals
the sounds
of conversation
your body and my hands

Chinese Translation

春雨
在櫻花紛落之際
那輕聲
的交談…
你的身體和我的雙手

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.
