Seasonal Tanka
Spring, the newly born,
wets too much on April but
makes May nice to smell.
Spring is soft to touch what is
child in spring grows summer full.
Languid Summer beats
torpor into already
sluggishness, then sighs.
Voluptuous, swollen heat
lusty summer, beauty fall.
Multifaceted Fall
knows her beauty wiles too well
Dark, mature beauty.
Fall dancing leaves no doubt too
graceful to not catch frostbite.
Winter's freezing buns
sit on the Earth to unthaw
We rocksalt her ass
Trespasser, won't move them buns.
Too slowly, she melts into spring.
