Gert W. Knop Poet Tanka

Breaking Daylight / Tagesanbruch

When daylight breaks
With forlorn voices of nature
In fading darkness

Tired stars faint and disappear
First sunrays glooming through clouds

----------------------------------------------

Wenn Tag anbricht
Mit einsamen Stimmen der Natur 
In schwindendem Dunkel

Müde Sterne verblassen, verschwinden
Sonnenstrahlen leuchten durch Wolken

Sara Kendrick May 12, 2010 at 12:22 PM Reads like a cloudy morn with a depressive mood..Hope just a mood that you were trying to portray and not your mood...Keep the creative pen flowing.. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my write "Under Rose Trellis".....I went out to see the roses again this morn and absorb the fragrance and that Choka came to my mind...Sara
