Miracle Sticks

Onto the blank page, Pour forth thoughts; ink lines of black; Thought forms of fluid; A calligraphers ink-scape A magical miracle.

This little gem is an amazing Tanka M.L. It is difficult to express such depth within such few lines as a Tanka, but you have managed it wonderfully. I loved this! 7
