flight of fancy
if I could I would
choose wings
every girl needs
one super power

| Tanka: Barbara Kaufmann Painting: Mary E. Rodning Translation and calligraphy: Hiromi Inoue Compiled haiga: Jasminka Nadaškić Đorđević |
This lovely painting by Mary Rodning was the prompt for the Autumn 2018 issue of Haigaonline. My tanka was chosen and was translated into Japanese. The calligraphy was placed on the painting to form a traditional haiga. Here is the link to the page on Haigaonline. Please go to the page to enjoy the music that was added to enhance the experience of this collaborative work. I am delighted and honored that my poem was chosen and I am ever grateful to Linda M. Papanicoloau for her dedication to the art of haiga by publishing Haigaonline.
