~Jewels From The Past~ (Double Tanka) Nice Southern mansions Beautiful places of long ago If their walls could talk They'd tell us more of what we Already know of other times. Many survived wars While others never made it Of that we are told But many still stand proudly Jewels from the past. Dorian Petersen Potter aka ladydp2000 copyright@2012 September.01.2016 ~Author's Notes: "The Tanka" is a classic Japanese poetry form or style related to the Haiku.
