2024 Gypsy's Tanka
: Put Your Hands On Me by Gypsy Blue Rose

 

 

put your hands 

 on me

like a blind man

to know my body intimately

from head to toe

 

 
 

 let me be your eyes

I will take you 

where you never 

have been before

to see the sunrise through my eyes

 

 


Author Notes
CONTEMPORARY TANKA has its seeds in the human heart and mind. IT grows into the myriad leaves of words and phrases expressing what the poet thinks and feels in her or his heart. Tanka are beautifully lyrical and they are often about love, loss, longing, and similar aspects of our emotional lives, The poems are deeply passionate. Women poets were committed to a life of both religious consciousness and erotic intensity.
