Eyes like a clear lake, reflections of a dreamland, skylights for two hearts. Walking amidst the cloud tops, the light brightens up their day. Edward J. Ebbs - March 15, 2015 Written for a Contest, TANKA 2

duuuude. this is phenominal. you have really captured the simplicity of eastern poetry. I have really come to love asian poetry, particularly from the chinese, but the japanese are great too. this poem encapsulates such a short and passing moment with such subtly vivid emotion
