A tanka from reading Exodus 33
Darkness covers me
I run this way and that way
Seeking a light’s glance
If I can only sit still
My heart His glory will fill
The tanka is a thirty-one-syllable poem. A tanka translates as “short song,” and is better known in its five-line, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable count form.

I love these lines: If I can only sit still
My heart His glory will fill
Beautiful
