Enjoyed. Thanks for sharing But why did you write ''2 tanka''? (note: it's TANKA - both singular and plural) There are 4 tanka, here, not 2, as a traditional tanka consists of a ''kami-no-ku'' (the upper part) and a ''shimo-no-ku'' (the lower part) totalling 5 lines (3+2) of maximum 5-7-5-7-7 ''on'' (or syllables) . Cheers Fabrizio
