"Toward Sunset"

I hear it trickle

The calming sound of water

Flowing downstream

Toward the wide, deep ocean

To the beautiful sunset

The Japanese tanka is a thirty-one-syllable poem, traditionally written in a single unbroken line. A form of waka, Japanese song or verse, tanka translates as "short song," and is better known in its five-line, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable count form.
