Notes About The Poem

Oliver's Tanka-Haiku Contest ~ August 2, 2025

Dawn's Lavender Sky

silence is broken
before morning sheds first light
chirping in the tree
dulcet tunes begin to trill
the world dreams, except for me
~           ~           ~
avian crooning
lavender sky luminance~
melodies at dawn
