About This Poem

Secreted Pond

                              Quixotic are we
                     Our bliss every night one kiss
                           A phantom mirrored
                       In a fervent moonlit pond
                         Like Nushi and Suseri*

    Love how you wrote it using Japanese mythology as subject matter. It seems to be a bit more 'authentic'. Congrats on your win....Tanya
