Call for Poetry Submissions: Xinhua/ Singapore Literature Journal
Deadline: 1 October 2012

Xinhua (Singapore Literature Journal) will soon launch the Verses Album. Submissions of short poems of 10 lines or less, tanka, or haiku are sought for the volume.

第78期的《新华文学》,将推出“小诗专辑”。

所谓小诗,可以是一种即兴式的短诗,表现刹那间的情绪和感触,寄寓人生的哲理和思想,并执着于意境的追求,引起读者的联想,具有言简意赅的效果。

小诗在日本以短歌或俳句的形式出现,印度泰戈尔的《飞鸟集》把小诗推向更广阔的艺术境界。在中国古代的微型诗佳作,据传是黄帝时代歌谣的《弹歌》:“断竹,续竹,飞土,逐肉。”全篇只有八个字,却写出了狩猎的全过程。欢迎诗人把现代新诗作品(以十行以内为佳),寄来与读者分享。

截稿日期:2012年10月1日
