The Birds - Tanka

Rating: 5.0


Darkness greets the world
Humans counteract with force
Yet I see the birds
Singing and sweetly tweeting
Despite food is hard to find.

Like this gorgeous Tanka ought human beings too. Excellently presented 5 Stars full! A brevity but the meaning is deeper than you might read. Very enjoyable read and we can ponder about deeper.

So true! Birds' life is not a song, and yet they sing, When things go wrong, Stoic little feathered things, Worth every word of your sweet and lovely song..
