my Brother (he is much more handsome. Funny angle)

Senryu a 3 line unrhymed Japanese poem similar to haiku but dealing with human nature satirical or ironic in vein.

Kyoka playful tanka:

that’s him
the tall big nosed one,
my brother
half Swiss-German
we share a Japanese father

Bro Frank Nakano, Julian Nakano, Me and Thomas Nakano–Zurich Switzerland, 2019, Summertime. His nose is not so big. Frank is actually handsome.

I love writing--It's my joy, my therapy--my confession. I'm a performer, dancer, yoga and meditation instructor, write a poetry column for Rafu Shimpo. Growth and love of life is a key to my happiness.
