Beautiful, I really like the way you have described spring (taste) instead of smell, wonderfully written and presented, an excellent example of the Tanka form****kahpot

One of my favorite places to be during spring is the Tidal Basin in Washington DC because the cherry blossoms are in bloom. It's perfect. Well, it was a few years ago. I have no idea what mess it's in now. Thank you for sharing this package with us. It's beautiful.

What a fantastic tanka, Gypsy. I really enjoyed your dual pictures of the young lady enjoying the kiss of the sun and cherry blossoms. I immensely liked your words because they showed that warmth and the scent of the cherry blossoms did indeed come true. Blessed be n hugs!!!

Nothing says spring like cherry blossoms. We have a double cherry blossom tree and it blooms as late as May and so we are still waiting for it to bloom. Like that you say "taste spring" bringing in a sense that really experiences in multiple ways.

Hi Gypsy Queen,
what a lovely image you painted with these words.

Your presentation once again rises to the top to pair words with image and image to coloured font that sets the perfect mood... yes, one can almost taste it!

Beautiful!

Kind regards,
James.

i liked how the form turned out with flowing down smaller
the pictures and colours were perfect

one suggestion - maybe for the title do "cherry blossom kiss" ? singular? just a thought ;)


thank you for sharing
shelley :)

This work has reached the exceptional level

The ombré you used for your text was such a brilliant idea. The changing of color as the blossom prepares for spring. Your words flow so smoothly together as well.
