Dawn Dewdrops

Presentation and Poem by Gypsy Blue Rose (c) copyright @11/14/24
dawn cries dewdrops because the moon is gone and I feel its grief — as it dreams of distant stars adorned with sapphire rings . the gray dawn carries nostalgic morning mist and transient clouds — that say goodbye and hide behind daylight

Tanka is a Japanese unrhymed poem with 31 syllables arranged in five lines; English tanka is 31 syllables or LESS because Japanese and English syllables are different. Tanka originated in the 6th century at the Japanese Imperial Court where lovers exchanged tanka poems for each other after a night of passionate lovemaking. With contemporary tanka the topic varies.
