Tanka of the Week (via Tanka News and haiku Headlines)
First Place Winner: Natalia L. Rudychev
i wish
my kisses
were the cherry petals
that stream all over you
in April wind
Second Place Winner: Marjorie Buettner
I wake
to feel your touch
entering my dreams
there you untie the canoe
and we drift under wild stars
Third Place Winner: Claudia Coutu Radmore
night blooming cereus
its soundless blossoming
lost in ours
this morning’s serenity
of spent grace
What do you think of these poems? Are they good enough?
Any thoughts, comments or disagreements would be much appreciated! _________________ Don't imitate me;
it's as boring
as the two halves of a melon.

It depends on your definition of "erotic." _________________ Napped half the day;

According to Pamela Babusci who is the sponsor and judge for the First International Erotic Tanka Contest for 2008, “erotic” means expressing love in all its manifestations.
My definition is that "erotic" means something marked by or tending to arouse sexual desire or interest. _________________ Don't imitate me;

While views vary on the way tanka should be written in English and tankaists continue to experiment, the contemporary English tanka may be described as an untitled free-verse, unrhymed short poem having at most 31 syllables, in most cases about 20 syllables, arranged in five lines. Natalia Rudychev’s tanka is written in a minimalist style, about one beat in its length when read aloud. Every word is well crafted and weaved into the fabric of the whole tanka. She employs the classical Japanese imagery of springtime to describe “the fluidity of fleeting kisses, the color and perfume of falling cherry petals, lightly caressing every inch of her lover’s body, caught in the warmth of April wind,” arousing the reader’s sexual desire or interest in the most subtle way. _________________ Time is nothing but a disquiet of the soul |

Yes.
In my view, one of the literary strengths of this tanka is that it is deeply rooted in the poetic tradition of Japanese court poetry and at the same time reveals a contemporary view of human sexuality. _________________ Don't imitate me;

Although all of them are evocatively sexy, where are the physical aspects of Love or S e x? LOL!

If you read the second tanka carefully, it speaks to your “physical concerns of s e x.” – the erotic beauty of two people making love. _________________ Don't imitate me;

Judge's Comments:
"This tanka was both sensual and evocative. A woman wakes to her lover’s touch entering, like a silent thief, in the night, into her hiding place of reveries. A secret place that few can enter or will ever enter. Once into the other lover’s dream world, she unties a canoe, that has been waiting to be released, where they drift effortlessly perhaps for years or for just a brief night. They float and sail beneath ambrosial stars. Stars that are savage, wild with passion, and who knows where those constellations will take them." _________________ Don't imitate me;

Indeed, this is sensually evocative and emotive. And I like its dream imagery. |

Yes, you could say so.
Judge's Comments:
"This tanka was strong in its subtle erotic beauty of two people making love. The tanka poet equates it to the silent blossoming of a night blooming cereus, a desert plant that blooms once a year in mid-summer for only one night. These two lovers openly surrender, not just their bodies, but, the essence of their inner being, the depth of their souls, petal by petal. There is a stillness after making love; after the fusion of two souls, two hearts, in perfect communion. Now, among the morning dew, the morning star, there is a tranquility, beyond words. A serenity that penetrates every fiber, the spent grace, of sacred love making." _________________ Don't imitate me;
