Goodbye For Now~Tanka

by Poet on the Piano   Jun 11, 2009


Early morning sun,
Chases away night shadows,
Remnants of the past.
Full moon but a memory,
Alas, it shall rise again.

    Beautiful.. and original! Not much to say, you seem to be very experimental with your forms as of late, continue to impress us. Youre doing a great job.. these forms and experimentation should definatly help you improve as a poet.

    Great work.
