Southern Plantations - the Tanka Style
~Southern Plantations~
( Tanka Duo)
Magnificent great homes
Fill'd of much history and beauty
Majestic jewels
Fill with many memories
Some so good some so bad
Sun is going down
Ancient walls show amidt oak trees
Many stand so tall
Surviving time many wars
Elegant homes exuding such grace.
