Hello! I'm Ayako I'm a poet and poetry performer! When I was in high school, I started writing tanka while performing on stage and won an award for my poems ``Cassis Drop.'' Since then, I have published four poetry books and an e-book of poems.Along with writing tanka, I am also working on tanka reading performances. I have formed a unit that combines music, video, and dance, and in recent years I have formed a unit called ``WAKA Live'' with Yasuhiro Mitara, We present a combination of the classical reading ``Hikou'' and my dramatic, modern reading style. Masu.Furthermore, I continue to give hands-on lectures, and hope to spread the Tanka poems born from my encounters and experiences in the world!
