Comment from Joan E.
I admired your detailed description of "fall's forage" and your alliteration of "f's" and "s's". Your 5-7-5-7-7 form is effective and your photograph parallels the theme well. Best wishes in the tanka contest- Joan

Thank you Joan.
Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
An interesting poem and very well written and presented.
How fortunate for these animals that "fall's forage " is available to them.
Meeting the contest guidelines is the challenge and you appear to have achieved this.
Good luck in the contest.
:-) Shirley

I liked this in your masterful portrayal of the fallen, but the fallen has risen in the stomach of deer and other animals, becoming a great forage of food and a staple diet. The words link well together. Well done, Tom.

Yes, indeed. The neighbor's tree gets cleaned up every year by our resident squirrels and it's so much fun to watch them examining the fallen bounty. I'm so glad summer's over...

One hopes that the apples have not started to ferment. The thought of all that drunken wildlife staggering around is not pleasant but these two tankas are very pleasant offerings indeed. Best of luck in the contest.

Thank you Pantygynt. I'll likely be disqualified for adding touches of rhyme.

Nothing in nature goes to waste. There is always a use for everything for each animal. Even the animals that die in nature will be eaten before the flesh gets rotten. Beautiful photo.

Best wishes in the contest.
