A Child Hibakusha – Hiroshima 1947

��

by Yuko Taniguchi (Adult Category, First Place)

For more info, including the Honorable Mention poems in their entirety, previous years’ winners, and the 2013 Barbara Mandigo Kelly Peace Poetry Awards Guidelines visit www.wagingpeace. org/menu/programs/awards-&-contests/bmkcontest/index.htm or contact the Foundation at 965-3443.

You keep moving onto the next village, to the ocean and to the rivers in another country. It would take you one hundred years to come back to Hiroshima again.

A Necessary Poetry by Hayun Cho (Youth Category, 13 though 18 years, First Place) The approach of holiness peace is the open mouth in a ﬁeld of silence that mirrors our souls blue green lips rain words scatter the old lands awakening the old graves every day is the anniversary of a war the children still whine their heartfelt songs the trees do not suddenly fall the trafﬁc does not stop and the graves are still still soft the dead cannot remind there is a hush and history turns its tangled head it is always right to remember where are the bones browning the sad womb of the earth illuminate the bones that are ourselves for peace is revolution the hope shout of dawn the frenzy of souls going somewhere more human than ever revolution is loving the ghosts it is seeing a lantern in the night and knowing the world is still moving still speaking full of a necessary poetry despite the darkness.

Reach Out by Pratyush Muthukumar (Youth Category, 12 years & under, First Place) A woman helping a baby chimpanzee in need Two boys helping a seal, tangled in a forest of weed A policeman buying a shoe for a homeless man Two friends building a snowman Peace This is peace Don’t you think? This is all that peace is about For if you turn the peace sign upside down, it is a hand reaching out

My mother When my hair began falling out, my mother got down on her knees and picked up one hair at a time. My hair was everywhere--under the hospital bed, inside my sleeves, on the white wall. My mother would sweep the floor, press my hair into a black ball between her hands and put it inside her apron’s pocket. Even after I became bald, the hairs continued to well up like spring water in the mountain. When the wind came through the window, my hairs moved like worms on the wet ground. This morning, my hair was inside my mother’s noodle soup. She filled her mouth with my hair and noodles and swallowed them all at once. My brother My brother pushed my swing, and I went up high. When I came down and passed him, he said he could see the top of my head, bare, full, and smooth like the belly of a pregnant woman. My grandmother Thousands of pieces of glass flew into my grandmother’s head like bees into a hive. After she lost all of her hair, she died. Inside the coffin, my grandmother’s head shone as if the stars were buried underneath her skin. My River River, I’m going to die soon. My grandmother, Cousin Toshi and Mrs. Kamata in the next village all died when they lost their hair.

You won’t ﬁnd a bald girl like me.
