Waiting for rain

teasing sun appears-retreats

shadow play unveiled

transparent wisps slowly rise

dark drama brews beyond.

For Carpe Diem Tanka Splendor #3: Rain—Although I don’t adhere to a classic tanka approach, I am most grateful for the instruction, examples and inspiration provided in this November Tanka event hosted by Chèvrefeuille.

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
