Comment from Wendy G
This is a very beautiful poem, expressing sadness and loneliness which at times seem unbearable, but you are paying tribute to the one you love and to the preciousness and value of your relationship. Well written. Good wishes for the Tanka contest.

Thank you, Wendy. At first I thought I'd write a single stanza, but it made the journey way too short! It's fun to play with formal forms in these contests.

There is sadness and lonliness here in your picture as well as your writing. There is also gratitude and love. This is well done and crative. All the best to you.

Thank you, Mary, for your very kind words. This is a difficult path I find myself on, one I never planned to take.
