sundown

far away melting
lonesome sun dims quietly
upon horizon
birds fall into reverie
only an ancient wind blows

So thats what they're called? Tankas? I suppose it is a set of words that is intended to paint a picture in the mind. Well, this one made a picture for me, and I nearly felt the shiver of the retreating sun.
