Will I Also Return
I was young as spring,
and held to an autumn's wind
like pomegranates
hung from the highest branches
before black crows hollowed them
•
autumn flurries came
with the scent of fallen fruit,
piles of dying leaves,
dark brothers crushed underfoot
to be shelter for next spring
This is a Rensaku of linked Tanka.

Thank you, Tommy. It's like the way it was for me (and I'm far from finished) while exploring through your entire catalog, you'll find more I'm sure... almost sure.
