Synopsis
This is the author’s second book of tanka; a collection of tanka prose, sequences, strings and duets interspersed with an abundance of singles on various subjects like the one below.
A tanka is a complete song or story, written in five lines or thirty one syllables. ( 5-7-5-7-7 ) It lends itself to so many subjects, not just the notes passed between lovers as in the original form. Everyday occurrences and all things encompassed by nature now celebrated in verse.

One review for Love & Loss
-
I love your amazing, intimate and complex emotion provoking book. My favourite is the tanka sequence For Molly on page 76 because my dog is 13 and she may die before me and your loss of Molly is so raw and respectful. The index is great for reference. I believe this is your greatest effort yet and deserves wide recognition. I hope you get it. I know I will re-read it many times.
