Tanka 1
Author: R. Walter Smith  PM
Tanka, a Japanese form of poetry that is older than haiku which consists of 31 onji morae, though in this case I use 31 syllables in phrases of 5-7-5-7-7.

Two happy children
Living in a state of bliss
Smiling up at me
I tear up as I realize
Like all things, they too will die.
