Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)

Excellent

This reminds me of so many happy times reciting nursery rhymes where people went to the moon (the old woman tossed up in a basket, or the cow), or lived there and ate it (green cheese moon), I used to believe I would go there one day - but team spirit was lacking in me to make the space team (and maybe other attributes). kay

This is a magical kind of poem. It could be about a loved one - grown-up or a child. The narrator's voice is one of adoring. And people like saying we are made of stardust - I'm guessing that means we are made up of most of the same chemicals.

I wrote it so it can be about anybody, a child would be a good choice but not the only one. I'm trying to move away from my lover woes, it must get old. Im trying new things (*<>*) I'm happy you like it.
Love you, big sister.

I love the melody within these words and as you know I love rhyme so I really enjoyed this modern tanka. I liked this presentation as the words seemed to be getting louder as I was reading, very clever, love Dolly x

I love this very poetic poem about the night sky, the moon and the stars. What a beautiful image you have painted here and presented here. The presentation is fantastic, too.

Well done.

Well she sounds hot. Do you know if she's single? Sorry couldn't help myself.

Great background with excellent coloring.

This had a really nice mellow feel to it.

Thank you!

This is a lovely poem and the art you have chosen is perfect for it. I always wonder how you get your poem in the middle of a picture like that. It is so striking. I love moonlight and stars. I've never written a Tanka but I'm tempted to try.

This imagery is so engaging, I imagined being the cradled "she." The graphic was perfectly chosen and the artistic presentation of the words added another layer of experience. Thank you for sharing more about Tanka.
