Another (correct) Tanka poem.


Stranger among friends

Stranger among friends,
They seeing only what he chose;
Keeping his secret well,
When it then became the wall
Nobody could ever scale

Another fine piece of poetry,
Strangely enough it reminds me
Of the wall. Regards Alan

No, though I have added some punctuation to make it more clear, and also in that 'Their' is maybe better as 'They'. Thanks Sameen.

That their there doesn't seem grammatically correct, right? Or am I tripping?
