As soon as I saw the title I knew your poem must be about the mountains - and you paint a lovely picture of the early-morning look and feel of those "round mounds." Not sure I understand the wet t-shirt reference, but it did make me smile:-)

Round Mounds is about nature and the personification of a woman with curb. You are very kind, Pam. I always appreciate constructive feedback and reviews. It's good to hear from you. Have a wonderful day.

Comment from Brady Bowen
I really enjoyed the evocative language, made more impactful by its brevity. The wet-tshirt reference is fun and original. Keep writing! Good work...

This Tanka was with interesting art work, multi color.
Speaking about the roundness of the mountain.
Well written rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Gypsy,
I am well, thank you. I was in New Orleans for a few weeks and that was fun! Stay well and safe!.....Maria
Comment from Mary Vigasin
A beautiful presentation with words so poetic to describe the beauty of the scene. You lull the reader into serenity with images and words, and then the wet t-shirt line. Funny. Thanks for the laugh.
Best wishes and regards,
Mary

Comment from LateBloomer
Hi Gypsy, your poem has lots of good imagery. I'm sure that the men would love to see a real life wet t-shirt contest, but perhaps not by FS members. We're an older group with a droop - lol. They will have to use their imagination--no disappointment there. A fun poem. Well done. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

I can't wait to see your photo one day. Like I said, after cancer, I thought ... what do I have to be afraid of (hacking). I've survived cancer. Be brave. Xo. Margaret

I like your Tanka poem - Excellent picture presentation - good theme - very clever lol - poem flows well - provides a subtle and suggestive picture - becoming clear after satori - then a reread - all fits together perfectly then - followed by a smile Nice job

Oh my! I never expected gently rolling mountains being compared to a wet T-shirt contest, but I can see it. I really can. Thank you once again, for sharing an entire package.

LoL women wouldn't but men have a one track mind. I like round curby mountains as in a beautiful imagery. When I write haiku or tanka I try to put myself in the shoes of other people or animals or insicts ... any sentient being. It's a good exercise.
Thank you again, Barbara, you are very kind.
