I like your personification of the new Day with her "open arms" to greet and encourage the addressee. I also like the "edge of night" which gives an almost physical feel to the intangible time period.

What a perfect time to have a rendezvous. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem with us. I really enjoyed the entire presentation. My mind is working overtime getting these two together.

Lovely written and expressed Tanka poem.Your use of metaphorical language emphasizes the beginning of something new, perhaps a fresh love based on a hopeful fulfillment of such after one ended.
Beautifully presented

Such an evocative and romantic verse! Love the description of the edge of night and the personification of dawn, adding a sense of satisfying harmony and completeness. Well done, Gypsy! Take care Debbie

Love Tankas!

Yours has a gentle, evocative quality. The imagery of "the edge of night" and "the break of dawn" is vivid and creates a strong visual contrast between dreams and reality. It captures a sense of anticipation and hope, suggesting a transition from one phase to another with warmth and optimism. You effectively convey deep emotion and imagery in just a few lines, which is a strength of the form.
Great job!!!

A nicely written post Gypsy, in the the poetic language that I enjoy, as always your presentation is flawless, and the theme is decidedly romantic and a lesson in short form writing, well done, blessings Roy
