: Do You Know? by Gypsy Blue Rose
Presentation and Poem (c) Gypsy Blue Rose copyright@2024

.

do you know?

      when you are near me

      my body fills with love 

the stars seem brighter

the moon lights up our home

~♦~

do you know?

      I need your touch

      to live and shine

like a hundred splendid suns

and passion forevermore 

 

Author Notes
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.
