a morning-glory

   

Emiko Miyashita has been a longtime friend of Yuki Teikei

 and has come all the way from Japan for many of our Haiku Retreats at Asilomar.

Here she is at one of them, in seaside light, sharing her expertise.

She has translated haiku into English, including fine books 

by Masajo Suzuki and Dr. Akito Arima

now available on Amazon.
