Mist Hangs Her Body

mist hangs her body

close to his softness blending 

early morning chill

separated no longer

hardness enters disappears

I really really like this tanka ;) any chance you could enter my contest "We Aren't Japanese but Please.."[no title other than line 1 is necessary ex: ---mist hangs her body] capitalization is seldom used in japanese forms nor punctuation..this content is exactly what a lover would write back to the man who sent her a haiku!
