Clear Conscience. (1st Tanka)

All my sad regrets,
I held firmly in both hands,
My heart felt lighter,
As I approached the cliff edge,
And released them to the wind !

My heart felt lighter,
As I approached the cliff edge,
And released them to the wind!

Very well done Mick, perfect syllable count, like the idea too.
