Ode To Man
Renga
The renga is related to the Haiku structure
and follows the same syllable pattern as the tanka,
ie 5-7-5-7-7.
Many monks in Tibet often communicated by using this style of poetry,
ie.the first monk would write the opening lines of the haiku and a second poet would composes the response using the pattern of 7,7, syllables
My Example
Ode To Man
A living being .
A creature formed from the clay .
Made in God's image .
Man can be so beautiful.
The spirit of man that is .
