New Year's morning
on The Metamorphosis
slanted sunlight
April rains
I touch the face
in The Scream
summer stargazing
they do the cha cha cha
in my whisky glass
Georgian Bay
sipping the Taiwan moon
from my cupped hands
snow on snow
is my life a dream
within a dream

One Man's Maple Moon: Sorrow Tanka by Michael McClintock
-
*English Original*
knowing sorrow
won’t go sailing
or for a swim
I take a long walk
to the cliffs and back
