Ancient History: haibun and tanka prose

By Adelaide B. Shaw

New Haven, Connecticut is my home town. The population when I was there-1936 to 1952- was over 160,000. It was not a small town, but my experiences growing up were centered around family and a small neighborhood of Italian, Irish, Polish, and Portuguese families.

This ancient history remembered here begins with my father and my mother and ends with the start of a new life 3,000 miles away.

These haibun and tanka prose are my fond recollections of an earlier time, neither simpler nor more difficult than the present, just different.
