Haikuing the Song of Songs 6:3
A Tanka

"I'm my beloved's
and my beloved's mine." Wise
lovers know there are
depths of married joy and peace
in mutual ownership.

Haikuing the Song of Songs 5:10-16 (Read it!)
A Tanka

Turns out she can praise
his physical attributes
as well as he hers!
She matches his "twin fawns" quip
with her "polished ivory".

A Tanka on December 26 🕯️

Call it St. Stephen's
or Boxing Day, I love the
quiet day after.
Family's home, leftovers good,
pressure off, Jesus born. Peace.
