Envy – A Tanka

The look on your face

Hinting of true sarcasm

Though your words are kind

Words can not hide the envy

And contempt that you harbor

      Thank you, you should try, they are really fun to write. Their form is 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 7 syllables. Its a form that is pretty easy to remember, but makes you think to put them together so that they make sense. I hope you do try them, I would love to read some. :)
