Fragile Petals – Tanka Thursday – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Storm is blowing 
Rose petals soft as tears 
Lamentably
Fall and scatter around 
Graffiti in my braids

Gallivant Butterfly – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

In floral bower 

Blue gallivant butterfly

Flutters loftily

Kissing lilies as he flies

To vanish in wilderness

Cache of the Moon – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

searching the peach clouds

cache of the moon we find

in evening twilight

we sleep in the wild bower

lulled by snug breeze of flower

Evening Aurora – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Evening aurora 
Rushing thick orange mantles 
Swirling wild and free 
Cover the day’s teal blue sky 
Light furtively vanishes

Stay With Me – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Stay with me 

Stay with me as flushes of pink

Stain the petals of the rose

Stay with me as the light

Hovers over the burning wick

Stay with me as the wine

Imbues my breath and thine

Stay with me as the moon

Smiles in the dark night

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
