Tanka Tuesday

Tanka Tuesday: Spring




Tanka is a form of Japanese poetry thousands of years old, very similar to haiku. The 5 unrhymed lines go in syllables of 5/7/5/7/7.

new buds on the trees
brave sprouts search out the sun
new life has returned
to proclaim the new season
welcomes us out into light
