Glean What Truth – A Tanka

4 Comments

Glean what truth you can

From this haggard earthly soul

Worn by life’s torment

For mortal time is finite

By natures perfect design

    Thanks. I’m having a ton of fun with both. Hmm – I think this calls for a haiku about a vampire ;) Thanks for all you write on blackandwrite too :)
