Tanka Poems - Victor P. Gendrano

[Other haiku & tanka] [Other titles in English] [All other titles]


  tanka

football fever
she hugs his pillow
for company
their bed gets colder
each passing game

 

the winter chill
creeps indoors
to marital discord--
unnoticed on TV
a pair skates in harmony

 

a skater glides
and floats with music
master of her world
i weep at such perfection
this poetry in motion

 

long after goodbyes
I kissed your lips
on edge of wine glass
hearing airline disaster
I kiss our wedding ring
