3 Tanshi
a stream
of thoughts
the long walk home
*
abandoned barn
the endless chirps
of crickets
*
the scent
of twilight lingers
ylang-ylang blossoms

2020: The Year in Review
Despite the pandemic, this year has been a good year. My first e-chapbook, exposed wishes, was published by proletaria.org (Singapore). Origami Poems Project also published my second microchap, spilling sunlight. I have been featured in three anthologies, into the warp and woof Best of Frameless Sky, Volume 1, and Creatrix Anthology 3, 2017-2019, and The Mainichi Haiku in English: Best of 2019. I wrote my first horror senryu and had it published in horror senryu journal, a twitter-based journal. I won some awards, although nothing major, and published several haiku and senryu, a haiga (with my niece, Paula B. Antonio), a tanka sonnet, a renga (with fellow haiku poet, Angelo Ancheta), and a haiku string. I am grateful to all the editors, contest judges, and fellow poets for all of these.
