rainsometimes: (katsura fs arc)
After the two spring tanka I wrote for this ship in April, now in July I got the idea for two summer-themed tanka as well. Remains to be seen if inspiration will strike in autumn and winter also...


1. (Gintoki POV)
Licking my dry lips.
In this heat, even shadows
Seem to melt away.
Cursing myself, I go out
To find you. Bring me the breeze.

2. (Zura POV)
Obon is coming.
Walk with me and the young ones
In these noisy streets,
With the fireflies and the moths.
Hold my hand. You will be fine.

Sudden attempt at two Ginzura tanka. I guess spring is affecting me... Warning for sappiness.

1. (Gintoki's POV)
On this quiet sidestreet,
Golden blossoms on the trees,
Against your black hair.
No radio waves - Danger!
I want to kiss you right now...

2. (Katsura's POV - Not the same moment, but perhaps the same spring)

A hanami picnic,
with the White Yaksha dozing,
petals in your hair.
Strange, peaceful happiness.
May this gentle moment last...
