Notes About The Poem

Glimmer of Hope

I noticed stab sites.

My bereavement was shattered.

Tidal surge of loss

Tomorrow's gaping abyss

Left a hope glimmer hanging

WoW! Lasaad, You penned such a well-written Tanka. Good imagery and content, I found it a bit sad, but your final line changed the tide; it brought a ray of hope. Well done:-) Alexis
