Tanka: Seeking Shelter

"Seeking Shelter"

The wind blowing south

Beckoning a long journey

Clouds colored in gray

Threatening a rainy day

—I seek shelter from the rain

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.
