Lightning(Tanka)

Lighting up the sky,
A streak of falling purple,
Touching the still earth,
The beauty so compelling
Of iridescent lighting.

    I like Tanka poem because they are always short. I enjoyed it and felt that it was conforming to the style.

    Good job, I know that it's hard to write these from time to time.
