Water Tanka
WATER TANKA
Water in Kettle
Sadly settled, imprisoned
in closed container
When got boiled, escape
Through nozzle: Happy vapor.
Water in small Pond
enclosed by trees, shrubs, bushes,
play with their shadows.
Ducks and ducklings pick up mud
Little ripples hit green moss.
Water in wide Lake
So cheerful in openness
Swift swans swim in glee.
Water-Lily and Lotus
Spread pretty petals, broad leaves.
