[stylist] Reflections, a tonkabun

[KajunCutie926 at aol.com]

Shawn, Erny will love it!  He loves to see a  writer spread his/her wings  
and trying something new.  This is the  guy who actually got me to NOT want 
to throw darts at a tanka.  I hated  those blasted things when I first read 
them and now they are some of my favorite  poetry.  So believe me, he will 
love this!

Applauding you, Shawn!  Very well crafted and you   show perfectly that you 
can go anywhere with this...Thank you for trying  it...  and would it be 
okay 
to share this with the friend who helped  me develop  the form?  He would 
be 
so tickled by  it...

Reflections

>From the  Train I see
The sky  reflected below
in urban towers.
Clouds  that sail across the sky
are  echoed in glass below.

The subway  train surfaces and I see, grabbing my  attention, the scene of 
sky  reflected in modern glass towers.  Steel gray  clouds steal across  
the 
sky as their shadows traverse the myriad windows that  the  buildings show 
to 
the world.  The beauty of sky and ground are   united; the works of God and 
man are as one.  I strive to remember  more  than facts, to hold this 
vision in 
my mind to pass it   on.
