Dream Fragments






          gathering
          dream fragments
          in my mind's eye...
          a sheet of white paper
          with many coloured pens

This tanka appeared in Aubrie Cox's latest Yay Words! project 'fox dreams'. Take a look for yourself here at all the amazing haiku, tanka, haiga, doodleku, rengay and other short form poetry. It's a beautiful and inspiring collection, and I'm sure I'll be asking a few of the contributors for their permission to reprint their haiku for my Dream Speak themed stint as the Per Diem editor at The Haiku Foundation. Enjoy! :)

Editing

          in my mind's eye
          this new tanka...
          the tinker tinker tinker
          of teaspoon against mug
