Evelyn Judy Buehler Poet Tanka

Notes About The Poem

Night's Many Colors

Mysterious blue
as midnight moonlight spills on
meandering dreams.
Once butterflies' ball is done
merlot bliss lies past the sun!

Red Mars reveries
join nights of mulberry rose
camouflaging green.
So many are not sleeping
when the yellow warblers sing.

Hilda Greenhough July 13, 2024 at 9:56 PM Thinking of night as black, your poem points out the many colors that evening has. I like the mention of a warbler keeping people awake. It's a well constructed tanka that warms the heart. Evelyn Judy Buehler July 13, 2024 at 10:24 PM Your wonderful comments are received with great pleasure. Thank you.
