"Under The Stars"

Watching the stars

Absorb by the mysteries

Stretching his hands

As if trying to grab them

—Become one with the stars

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.
