Japan does seem to have a "samurai spirit" Jack. May the sun shine on the country forever. Good luck in Debbie's contest. Best to you, Diane

The adjectives you used to describe the Samurai spirit are perfect, Jack. And I love the hope that springs from the last to lines. Outstanding entry for Deb's contest. Always wishing you success, dear friend. Love, Carolyn

Yes, they do have a warrior-like spirit, Jack. They have risen above so much and will continue to show their courage. Nice tanka! Gwendolen
