About This Poem

Japan

the heart is saddened
powerless we stand with God
together with now
our spirits unite as one
cherry blossom is quiet

    Bravo! You know, I've been captivated by haikus and tankas for the last eight months... Please, check out my first post here. It's a haiku. I'm only... one day old on this site!
