First 14 Comments Gets A Tanka Poem!

NOTE: THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR RESPONSES! 

I'm offering 14 free tanka poems for the first 14 people that comments on this journal entry!

I want to try and improve upon writing tanka poems and this is the best way in my opinion. If you want your tanka to be based on a word prompt, then please do let me know in the comments and I'll see what I can do for you  If you don' t know what a tanka is, then here is the definition:

"The typical lyric poem of Japanese literature, composed of five unrhymed metrical units of 5,7,5,7,7 'sound symbols'; tanka in English have generally been in five lines with a total of thirty-one or fewer syllables, often observing a short, long, short, long, long pattern. Tanka usually need no titles, though in Japanese a 'topic' (dai) is often indicated where a title would normally stand in Western poetry. In Japan, the tanka is well over twelve hundred years old (haiku is about three hundred years old), and has gone through many periods of change in style and content. But it has always been a poem of feelings, often involving metaphor and other figurative language (not generally used in haiku). While tanka praising nature have been written, and seem to resemble "long haiku," most tanka deal with human relationships or the author's situation."
