The three note song
of an unknown bird
yesterday
today and tomorrow
Amelia Fielden p101
Slowly read this through the year, and sadly didn't read much other poetry. The chapters are divided into the 12 months of 2009 and occasionally reflect back over some significant world event of that year. Tanka poems in a conversation between these two local poets who are great friends.
