August tunes and replays
a tearful song from the heart
of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
and monsoon droplets
resonate that heartfelt song
on the strings of August.......
August 2,2009
People don't even have time to think of the innocent victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. People are more concerned about destructive provocation through refined politeness. Peace is a far reach cry. A good reminder of August..10 Gayatri

A powerful poem. I like the fact that you present it in one-line stanzas. That is a brave approach as it puts greater scrutiny on the words. As it is this works perfect and brings to my mind the great Japanese poet Takamura Kotaro. That, my friend, is a complement.
