Gert W. Knop Poet Tanka

Herbstbild/Autumn Picture/Imagen De Otoño

Aus grauem Nebel
Impressionistische Bilder
Der herbstliche Märchenwald

Dichter Nebel am Morgen
Birgt traurige Einsamkeit

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

Out of gray fog
Impressionistic pictures
Autumnal fairy tale forest

Dense fog in the morning
Shelters only sad  loneliness

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

Desde niebla gris
Cuadros impresionistas
Bosque de cuentos otoñales

Densa  niebla por la mañana
Salva sólo triste soledad

Audrey Haick November 16, 2010 at 2:23 PM A wonderful Tanka which does remind me of a Grimms Fairytale story, Gert. Your poems are always impressive whatever the form. Love, Audrey

Carolyn Devonshire November 16, 2010 at 8:16 AM A beautiful image described so creatively, Gert! I love the concept of "Autumnal fairy tale forest." That's just how they look on foggy mornings. The last line is very touching. You have the tanka form mastered, Gert, and it's great to see you posting new work again! Love, CArolyn
