Meditation (Tanka)

Hi there...

I've missed your posts the most since last I was here regularly.
Glad you're still sticking with the Japanese form. You've a definite and well-paid-off love with it.

I'm smiling now, as I realise that a poem titled 'meditation' actually asks for no response.
I do wonder, and may be stepping over my bounds here, need you have 'tanka' in the title line? Is this not now an arunansu... lover of japanese form?

Thanks R.Cox, I labeled it to differentiate it from a "Gogyokha". Smiles.

Thanks KevJ for your reply and time.
