Gypsy, hello. This is a wonderful Tanka and you chose a really good theme and photo to encapsulate your thoughts on the beauty of the loving souls and the resulting passion. Well done, my friend.

My husband and second son keep having a friendly banter, this has gone on for years, of who was the best guitarist. Jimi Hendrix is my son's choice. Thank you sharing this poem where two people are madly in love with each other. I love a good romantic poem.

Another great tanka, Gypsy. The dual pictures indicated the love that was generated, the other was a plant in hopes of that love. There was so much passion written into this tanka. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

I like your tanks poem- nice picture presentation- poem softly flows with your metaphors- but seem to hit the rapids in the last two stanzas? Allow me to suggest- 'where billowing waves of love are consumed (in or by) passions fire' good job - AP

This was definitely a more hopeful feel compared to the previous poem. The purple conveying the sequel tension two share. Your ease with writing these poems amazes me. Gretchen

It sounds like the lovers are very much in love. My favorite thing is that these two are kindred spirits so that even when the physical passion's fire diminishes, their spirits will remain close.

Yes, it's hard to find a kindred spirit. I thought I had but I was wrong.

Thank you very much, big sister.

Love,
Marival ❤️
