Hi Joan, this is a very well-written verse that is crafted with meaning and feeling. I enjoyed reading it. You did a fine job in crafting this Tanaga poetic form and it's perfect for this prompt. Hugs!

What an interesting poem structure! Thanks for the informatives notes. This tanaga does indeed have seven syllables in every line. I see metaphors in each line. And the rhyme scheme for each stanza is aaaa. The topic is interesting too. Although my home is wherever I am. :)

Thanks Sandra,
It was easier because I was on a plane when I wrote it.

Check the spelling of your title! Lol.

This is a lovely series of Tangas. Well done. You've worked really successfully on that repetitive rhyme. Most enjoyable. X
