tanka
1.
beach wind swirls,
reveals glittering broken shells
i pray that god would send
the grace to help me pick up
the pieces of my life
2.
wave after wave
crushes against my legs
i remember mom's every word
to help me stand on
my own two feet
3.
old torn book
keeping only half the tale
the knowledge that i
would know only part
of myself in this realm
haiku:
1.
sea of passion
in the dark waves,. a woman and a man
cry out to each other
2.
the sea
refuses me
to blaze a trail
3.
art exhibition
the echoes of footsteps
as i admire the steps on the Great Wall
i love this poem
