gin

oh juniper tree
high five to thy lively gin
that drives us to jibe
a jitterbug jig and jive
that we all get berried in

though tanka do not typically have the meter of a fun rhyming poem, I really enjoy doing them that way myself sometimes. I really love the word play in the last line. Great job in my contest. Congrats
