One Man's Maple Moon: Cruise Tanka by Keitha Keyes

English Original

on our cruise
some people eat dinner
at the first sitting --
we opt instead
for a cocktail of sunsets

red lights, June 2017

Keitha Keyes


Chinese Translation (Traditional)

在遊輪上
有些人一找到座位
就坐下吃晚飯 --
我們選擇享受
雞尾酒般的日落美景

Chinese Translation (Simplified)

在游轮上
有些人一找到座位
就坐下吃晚饭 --
我们选择享受
鸡尾酒般的日落美景


Bio Sketch

Keitha Keyes lives in Sydney, Australia in a small house decorated with ship models, antique irons and trivets. And a cocker spaniel. Her retirement would be very empty without the lure of writing tanka, haiku, cherita and other poetry.
