her altar set
for family and friends . . .
each calavera
flickering light that sparks
all of our memories
--Margaret Dornaus
Once again, I'm privileged to share several images and small poems or calaveras ("skulls") contributed by my friends and fellow poets for my annual Día de los Muertos posting. Thank you all for the generosity of your contributions.
Margaret Dornaus has put together another wonderfully moving tribute to those loved ones we have lost, on her Haiku-doodle blog, to commemorate Day of the Dead. Click on the link above to read her full post, including a haiku and tanka of mine, and three collaborative haiga I did with Kirsten Cliff (our very first!)
