Notes About The Poem

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.
