Yes, summer does seem to be lazy and it's always fun to watch the clouds glide across the sky and to follow the shadows. Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. Good luck with the contest.

Comment from Debbie Pope
Tanka lady, I am out of sixes and this tanka is so deserving. I love your isolated islands floating along. And you create such a peaceful mood with words like flitter, lazy rhythm, and languidly.
Nice images, perfect turning line. You are a pro at this format for sure.

You had me thinking about the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer when we slow down and just enjoy life. Great imagery. A fine entry for the contest, Melissa!

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nice image and presentation, Melissa.
-A well written tanka with a good topic.
-Effective imagery throughout, beginning
with the setting in the opening two lines.
-A very good pivot line with repetition of the 'i' sound.
-Very good closing lines go back to the clouds
that seem to be floating to "summer's lazy rhythm."
-Very well done; good luck in the contest.
