I can't get over the beautiful imagery here! "Full moon balanced on bare bough"... my mind's eye immediately pictured it. What a beautiful and creative description. This was a splendid piece!

Another fine poem Gypsy----and even though I am a morning guy, I think I could manage to stay awake for her! Although with my rapidly advancing years, I'd better take a nap just in case!

Saucy artwork for your lovely poem. I presume it's a self portrait? Beautiful imagery as one so often expects from you. The first two lines are spectacular. Well done. x

Hi MariVal,
This is a well done tanka the uses metaphor/personification well to describe the fall of a tree's last leaf.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Joan

This is such a beautiful, well written little poem in tanka style. The imagery is wonderful, ie, "full moon balance on the bare bough." Your use of alliteration is very effective too. Truly lovely!

Thank you for sharing this beautifully seductive poem with us. It seduces us in at the beginning with the words you chose and captures us until the end. Wonderful job. You out do yourself with each poem you write.
