I’m bound
by the remembrance
of our dying love —
caught in the winds of change
while I hold on to the echoes of our song

Author Notes
"Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it." ~ Nicholas Sparks
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.
