Alabaster Moon – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha


Alabaster moon 

Hearkening to thunderstorm 

Petrified seamen 

Lost in the midst of nowhere 

Haunting memories of home

Anita Bacha

Thank you for your visit today, my dear friends.

Creative and inspirational writer of stories, poetry, and haikus I am also an addictive reader of novels, poetry, haiku, and children's storybooks. I am the author of SOUL POETRY a book of inspirational poems, verses, and quotes published by Partridge India (2015) The Maker of Miracles (2006) published in the USA by Dorrance Publishing and My Journey with God (2008) published under the banner of Sai Towers, India is the narration about my spiritual journey. My new poetry book INK Echo of life and love published by Γ‰ditions de L’Ocean Indien (2019) in Mauritius, my birth country is a collection of love poems extolling the feelings and desires of women. The Princess and the Crow is my first storybook for children, released by Austin Macauley Publishers London in March 2019. Two years later, I was inspired to write and published two other books - WAKASHIO, a storybook for children, and PINK MOON - AN ANTHOLOGY OF HAIKU POEMS. I love to write. I guess my writing has a special clichΓ© of island 🌴 life, natural, unpretentious, and full of beauty.

      1. Oh, I’m sorry for your eyes, Anita! I had a brain trauma when I was 3 months old, and I lost the olfact, part of my right ear hearing, and 90% of the vision of my right eye. We should take care of our bodies. Take care! πŸ’ Your tankas and haΓ―kus are always beautiful.
