Hi gypsy, you certainly know how to tackle the sensuous beauty of a beautiful young woman. The tanker is written superbly and is instructive for those who are interested in learning a new form of Japanese poetry. Cheers, Giddy

I love the descriptions of the sunrise. The vermillion and cinnabar are especially appealing as an artist. They are very distinct. Great piece of poetry. Your command of this style amazes me. Thank you for posting. Gretchen

I had heard of vermilion but never heard of cinnabar. Thank you for your author's notes. I enjoyed the beautiful presentation. I had no problem reading the colors you have on this poem. I do have problems reading some color combinations, but not this one. So, there are actually more people out there who have worse color issues than me. Go figure. LOL

You have done a wonderful job with this Tanka form, Gypsy. The use of color in your verse is so appropriate and is a compliment to your artwork. I really enjoyed reading it.

Sounds like she's really HOT!! I like the colors you chose to show the flaming colors of the sunrise that the narrator sees in this alluring lady. But he knows it could be dangerous for him emotionally.
