Cheryl, A very nice Tanka format (5-7-5-7-7) and a nice reference to the verse in the Song of Solomon. I like your personification of Christ that you made here through the story of the rose. -Bob |

Bob, I glad you liked the tanka. I think the rose does depict Christ's life. Full of beauty, carelessly regarded by man. But thanks to God, our Rose shall never fade or die. Cheryl |
