Anastasia Romanov (Senryu Duo)

Missing image
The winter palace
Brings tears of ceased memories
And sorrowful thoughts

Let her story live
Through yellowed pages of time
Forget not these tears

    Excellent

    I like this poem because it blends the element of truth with the element of fiction. There have been several movies made about the tragic life of Anastasia Romanov. The question always arises. Is she dead or alive? There lies the mystery of this woman of mystique. Great writing!!! You said so much with your short Haiku lines. ***Ivy Rose

    I love reading different forms of poetry - and this one was BRILLIANT. Yes, she does deserve to be remembered damnit (lol), and you have written a wonderful tribute to her.
    Excellent work
    Much love to you

    Woo! First comment. K, now, about this double-Haiku-thing (thought I wouldn't get that, now did you??)-- It's very nice. It makes me think (and you know how rarely that happens.)
