A #Tanka for A Month with Yeats: Day 16 #haiku #poetry

From ‘He Mourns for the Change That Has Come Upon Him and Longs for the End of the World’
‘Do you not hear me calling, white deer with no horns?’—W.B. Yeats

 

white-tail doe

her bent neck over crabgrass

at sunset

Where have all your fawns gone?

Why do you graze alone?
