Note: The theme music and transitions have changed because the ones I was using from my hosting service are suddenly no longer available. I discovered this at the proverbial 11th hour, so had to make do with new stock sounds. Hopefully that didn't cause too much confusion. If you know of anyone who enjoys writing music and cues for podcasts, please let me know! 

Christa's winning poem in the 2022 Tanka Society of America Fleeting Words Tanka Contest

more than fifty years

we wandered side by side

in seeming bliss

who sees the cracks and flaws

we patched with liquid gold

Christa's free-verse chapbooks

Southern Seasons

Maya: Glimpses of the Mahabharata

Hummingbird Wings: Karma Meditations

Who am I? Who are We?

Welcome to the first episode of The Culinary Saijiki podcast! I talk with Agnes Eva Savich, leader of the Austin Haiku Study Group (among other things) about eight of her haiku. Along the way, we discuss holidays, motherhood, fruit, and the fun of Haiku North America conferences.
