for you said
you would come and see me
I wait under our tree
bathed in leafy shadows
night after night

One Man's Maple Moon: Winter Dusk Tanka by Marion Alice Poirier
-
*English Original*
in winter dusk
an ocean flows between us ...
I play our song
and wonder, can you hear it
beneath the sickle moon?
