Sara Kendrick Poet Tanka

Afar

Long time viewed afar
How lovely this lady fair
Inquired of her life

Beautiful available
Love's seed blossomed to full bloom 


Handsome gentleman
Inquired about lady fair
Got her attention

Cupid pulled the bow tightly
Arrow tied two forever

Joann Grisetti October 15, 2012 at 7:37 PM I like the juxtaposition of the Greek Cupid with japanese Tanka. Best of luck, and I am glad things are improving.
