Recently, three different literary magazines have published my poems. Editor Susan Weaver of the tanka journal Ribbons published my poem “Sunset Landscape” in the spring/summer 2022 issue. I originally wrote this as a quatrain in 1976, but I recently revised it into a tanka, which resembles haiku but is five lines long instead of three.
Editor Julie Thorndike of Eucalypt, another tanka journal, published my poem “Spontaneity” in issue 32. This literary magazine is based in Australia.
Editor Jim Lewis of Verse-Virtual published three longer poems: “Bamboo Shoot,” “Warm Autumn in Michigan,” and “Tashlich” in the May 2022 issue. https://www.verse-virtual.org/2022/May/heller-janet-ruth-2022-may.html
I’m very grateful to all of these editors for their interest in my work.
