One of life’s greatest mysteries…or not. A tanka (or an attempt at one).

A man and woman
Two enemies? Friends? Lovers?
Will we ever know
The true meaning of this bond
Will we ever comprehend?

    Nice one, and nice to see you trying your hand at a tanka.

    Tanka very much (hehehe)

    I don’t have the answer. Maybe there is no answer. Maybe we don’t need an answer.

    I don\\\\\\\’t think we ever will. An enjoyable read.

    Enchanting and thought-provoking.

    Hi Lady Sunshine, I love your tanka, I’m not sure if we will ever comprehend, but I would like to think so.
