Inside, you'll find:

-Five themed sections: memory, love, growth, transformation, and dreamscapes

-Contemporary themes blended with tanka-inspired elements

-Moments captured in nature and everyday life

-Each poem is uniquely paired with visual art, reminiscent of hagia

Perfect for poetry lovers seeking a modern take on a classic form, readers who appreciate brief, impactful verses, and anyone looking to explore the spaces between waking and dreaming, past and present.

Here's a glimpse of the tanka within:

mountains melt to watercolors—

sun-warmed grass cradles

Tiffany Mackay's work has been featured in various publications, such as Humana Obscura, Cold Moon Journal, Plum Tree Tavern, Japan Society London Haiku Corner, Haikuniverse, and Scarlet Dragonfly.

Note: This collection contains freestyle tanka poetry that often breaks from strict 5-7-5-7-7 syllable patterns to better suit contemporary expression while also creating a visual experience reminiscent of hagia.
