CORRECTION! Refloating the Tanka

Some days ago I published a 'congratulations' to Rose van Son for winning the Freo Press Tanka competition -= then printed the poem incorrectly! Black mark, Andrew. Here is the correct version, complete with 5/7/5/7/7 syllables. Mea culpa.


all the candles lit
just a flicker now and then
the bowl tightly fits
what is left of you and me
murmurings behind closed doors

Rose van Son
