Easter Tanka

Sunrise paints the sky, Easter's warmth on blossoms lie, Choirs of birds sing high, In the light, new hopes untie, Spring's embrace, winter's goodbye.

magnificent Tanka, Don. Tankas are one of my favorite forms...and yours is filled with Easter hope and joy. I especially liked 'new hopes untie.' Hope you had a wonderful Easter Sunday. Have a great week, your poetess friend, Sara
