Victor Gendrano

A collection of mostly published and commented poems which reflects the poet's varied interests, Victor P. Gendrano writes haiku, tanka, cinquain, sijo, and free verse equally well as he moves comfortably among genres, his works consistently fresh and real. In his senryu it is almost awesome to witness strong messages coming out of the three short lines. His tanka themes bring to mind classical tanka from 1000 years ago, his cinquain verse is notable for its straightforward diction and accessibility, and his sijo is written with an easy grace and rhythm. To read his free verse poetry is to hear an authentic lyric voice celebrating life in its various manifestations; his touching honesty and humanity thoroughly inhabit his poetry.
