Poetry in the Moment: TrumpFree Day Tanka

the White House

in breezy sunshine

this TrumpFree Day

TV off, I open the window

and my heart to birdsong

NeverEnding Story, January 20 2021

Added: to Inaugural Poet, Amanda Gorman

Inauguration

my door ajar, moonlight spills in

and the silence slips out

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.
