Beth,
This is a good poem tnaka that reminds us of looking and the clouds and trying to see if they look like something. This sky is definitely artwork at times both on sunny and stormy days.
Congrats on placing third in the contest

I think that everything is the a picture painted of the reality God has drawn. It is beautiful artwork by God himself. Excellent work! Good luck in the contest! Good job.

Thank you Raul, I appreciate the review. I see nature as a reflection of God and I love the clouds. The world in spite of everything we seem to be doing to harm it, is still a beautiful place God created for us to enjoy.

Comment from Midi O'Rourke
This is a great tanka. It's a very nice form. It allows for a more defined ending. I love your last line - splashed across a sea of blue. Very good description. I will think of clouds that way. Thanks

Thank you so much for the review and the nice comments. I loved the picture too. That little girl reminded me of myself at thata age. I wore my hair that way. I"m thrilled with the six stars.

The poem is contest compliant
It has a good format
The visual presentation is of a high standard

Comment from MAMONIA
How very stunning! I love the poem and the artwork. You did a wonderful job on this tanka.
We all must be children again to witness the beauty of nature with innocence and appreciate the sea of blue splashed in the sky.
I love all of it.
A fine piece of work you have here.
Good luck in the contest.
My best,
Marie

Thank you, Marie. I love the clouds. I'm always taking picture of clouds and If I'm painting I like a few puffy white clouds in my summer pictures.

"Summer Skies", is short, succinct and delightfully descriptive. Penned with
craft and skill, this talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. Good luck with the contest. Please let me know how you get on?

Comment from Anne Johnston
What a sweet picture of that little girl gazing at the sky. Our sky was like this today, lots of fluffy clouds and patches of blue. Always brings back memories of childhood. Well done on this Tanka
