~ Venus Rising ~

by Gypsy Blue Rose


Rules in author notes

your trembling fingers

travel across space and time

  searching for my touch—

as we are entangled 

with sweet dreams and stardust

 

Hold on,

I will guide you across the sky

       amidst crisp cool breeze —

from the deep dark night

to our warm and cozy home 

 

outside

the aquamarine sea

reflects my sequin stars gown—

I’m waiting for you to dip in

where Venus is the star of the show

Lore = the body of knowledge, especially of a traditional or popular nature, on a particular subject

Astrology = the study that interprets the influence of the heavenly bodies on human affairs.

Is astrology a science? People are divided on the answer, personally, I believe it is.

Tanka is a Japanese unrhymed poem having about 12 to 31 syllables usually arranged in five lines and read in about two breaths in length when read aloud. The first poets who wrote tanka imitated the Japanese models of a 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structure in five lines. This resulted in poems that were too long in comparison to Japanese tanka. The first tanka were padded or chopped to meet the fixed number of syllables. Additionally, the third line must transition from the descriptive and image-focused beginning lines into a reflective metaphor, simile, or personification for the closing lines. The subject matter varies, but most tanka are emotionally stirring or profound, and many are about love. click here if you want to read modern tanka examples === click here to read Tanka Society of America === click here if you want to read modern tanka rules
