Where To? (Tanka)

by Meme   Feb 13, 2012


Every wind moves
a different sail, but all
together moving
to the same destination,
just like a flowing river.

    Very succinct.

    "Every wind moves
    a different sail"

    We all fall under the power of the wind of community, though we are widespread and differing in many qualities

    "but all
    together moving
    to the same destination"

    This is the essence of commonality - we travel together, apart yet one

    "just like a flowing river"

    The wind on the river - excellent juxtaposition of forces, both of which flow.
