I like your Tanka Poem - nice bright picture presentation - I see it so clearly in these colors - poem flows nicely, I like the rhyming words it pulls it together - oak tree disrobes shamelessly - nice use of metaphors-
you have certainly been a busy girl with all these poems!!! Be careful you don't break a nail girl! lol. Good Job. Take care

You already know how I feel about beautiful autumn leaves. I so miss them. I asked by husband if we could take a vacation to the Midwest so I could see the leaves, that I missed them that much. He said I asked too late to make plans. I'll make plans earlier next year. Thank you for sharing your beautiful package with us.

There is an ethereal beauty to autumn and you've captured it perfectly here, Gypsy!

"as oak tree disproves shamelessly..."

Pristine! Love the metaphor!

This Tanka about an Oak tree at its finest.
Was written well, rich in theme and Imagery.
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.
Thanks for sharing this colorful Poem.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Gypsy,
This exceptional poem epitomizes autumn, with its mention falling foliage. You make a dreary time of year (end of fall) into one of grace and dance.
Good luck with all your writing, Gypsy.
Blessings,
Cindy

Another fine poem, Gypsy----and I think you've hit on a brand new type of pornography; tree porn. I'm willing to bet it's a lucrative market in waiting!

    LoL tree porn? Lol that gives 'tree huggers' a different meaning.

    Thank you very much for your time and kind review and helpfull feedback

I like your personification of the oak tree "disrobing shamelessly." Of course, the tree had no choice. But actually, sometimes, oak trees hold on to their leaves and they turn brown. Lovely presentation as always!

    Thank you, big sister. It's fun to use personification of nature. After all, we are all living creatures.

    Love you,
