"Falling Star"


The silver moonlight

Blanket a tired, weary soul

Gaze of confusion

Looked towards the dark sky

And saw a star falling

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.
