Jewels From the Past - the Tanka Style
~Jewels From The Past~
(Double Tanka)
Nice Southern mansions
Beautiful places of long ago
If their walls could talk
They'd tell us more of what we
Already know of other times.
Many survived wars
While others never made it
Of that we are told
But many still stand proudly
Jewels from the past.
