Here are some tanka -- but first let me say it tankastically:

Answer Tanka

I give you fishes.
Classmate would teach you to fish.
You glance down.
Fish flop and gasp at your feet.
One of them will sing of love.

-----------------------------------------------------

From Tanka Splendor 1990:

if only
because it might
still visit you,
must I now envy
even the autumn wind

Anna Holley
Austin, Texas

From Tanka Spendor 2004 collection:
http://www.ahapoetry.com/ts2004.htm

she loves me
she loves me not
petal by petal
I’ve pulled
this love apart
--Keith McMahen

a chilly gray day -
sitting in the rocker
with the mending
the shape of you remains
in your old sweater
-- Adelaide B. Shaw


spring runoff
water moving swiftly through
makeshift channels
somehow I always know
the way back to you
-- Angela Leuck



a thousand reasons
to leave him
a thousand
reasons to stay...
withering bamboo
-- Pamela A. Babusci


though you’re never
farther away than my thoughts
it is here
that I feel you the most –
where the earth touches the sky
-- Thelma Mariano

But you know, poke around here

and find all the longing and love you can cram into five lines ...
