Seven Japanese tanka
Mist - In the spring - Pearls - White egret - Recalled - A doe - Fondly
( Oh, mist floats on the spring meadow ; In the spring ; I send you a box of glowing pearls ; Like a wave crest escaped and frozen ; Out in the marsh reeds ; The cry of the stag is so loud ; I may live on until I long for this time )
Johnson, Gordon (born in 1924) [ USA ]
