: Your Absence Sings by Gypsy Blue Rose

your absence sings  

where the moon kisses the stars

with woeful notes 

my mind knows I must move on

but my heart follows a different path

 

 

Author Notes
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.

Pivot lines are a feature in Japanese tanka and are often a feature of English tanka. A pivot line, is usually written on line 3 click here if you want to read modern tanka examples * click here to join the Tanka Society of America * click here if you want to read modern tanka rules
