"Wintry"


Cold powdery dust

Covers the earth in pure chill

Wintry northern wind

And this icy sea of white

Declares that its time is nigh

The Japanese tanka is a thirty-one-syllable poem, traditionally written in a single unbroken line. A form of waka, Japanese song or verse, tanka translates as "short song," and is better known in its five-line, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable count form.
