Your Voice

This type of poem is called a Tanka. I just learned about it, and started working with it (format is 57577-syllables)

The sound of the drums
Echoes sweetly in my ears
Reminicing of
Your perfect voice, as sweet as I
Can remember, never less.

I like it... Its better than a.... *forgets* 575. That one :P
My goodness I'm terrible haha.... HAIKU!
It was sweet. You should add more in some sort of series, unless that wouldn't make it a Tanka... but just a ... Ultimate Tanka :P
