Thanks for the review, Sanku. I appreciate your comments about te picture and the heron bringing out emotions. It does have a lot of patience that eventually pays off. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
The picture is lovely and yet chilly in its theme. The poem reminds us that winter always comes, and all the heron can do is await its cold breath. It will be interesting to know what these verses will follow in the respa book. Or maybe I still don't understand this form of poetry.

Thanks for the review, Carol. I appreciate your comments about the picture and the "chilly theme." It has been chilly here in NJ. I like your description of the heron. This isn't my book, Gypsy created it. It is a two part process. A person begins with a haiku. The next person writes a two line poem with each line being 7 syllables and relating it to the theme or topic of the poem before it.
Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
Picture and poem are well matched. They look both stark and forlorn, as well as passing and calm. Odd. The colors are subdued and restful. Good combination. Karen

This is a lovely poem in a form I was not familiar with, but I've been reading a few for this multi-author book and enjoying them. The image is perfect and the presentation beautiful. Very descriptive in this short form. Well done!

Thanks for the review, Alan. I appreciate your comments about the poem and picture. I am glad you enjoyed it and the "economy of words" describing the lake and the heron.
Comment from DonandVicki
A renga that brings out imagery of a cold winter lake with hungry Herons looking for hungrier fish. The image that you chose complements your well crafted poem.

Thanks for the review, Gypsy. I appreciate your comments about this renga and the presentation. Thanks for sharing the project for people to participate in. It's a great idea.
Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Pam.
Since I do not write in Japanese style poetry, the renga reminds me of an epigram. I have written and published many of those in the past. The picture you use is a "reflection" of your poetry. I would have to say that is very well written.

I am enjoying the Renga's on here so much.
They are like little snippets into a book of micro chapters.
I really must get into gear and see if I can contribute some time.
