Great tanka which makes me think of our country in these turbulent time. Most want to unite as one under wise and sane leaders. It's sad that some groups are spreading lies to separate us.

    Yes! you are the only one who got it. Thank you, big sister.

    How are you doing? I am cleaning with my son-in-law. The landlady is coming tomorrow to check our balcony. It usually has a lot of boxes but it's all clean now. Tomorrow, my daughter is getting a dog for Atticus. I cleaned the living room and kitchen making sure all the tiny legos are not on the floor. Atticus has tons of legos so I don't know how that is going to work. I like dogs and cats but I am not a pet kind of girl. But I am happy for Atticus.

    It's super hot in Pasadena... all of Los Angeles. I hope you are cool.

    Love,

    MariVal

Some wonderful alliteration powering those turbulent waters to their peaceful conclusion, at least until the wind changes its mind. Beautifully atmospheric and a joy to read. Thank you, Gypsy. Have a great weekend. Debbie

Wouldn't it be wonderful if humans would act as these turbulent waters and figure out how to become like one and because peaceful and work together instead of pulling each other apart? Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us in this beautiful poem.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Every relationship has all kinds of conflicts, and at times we wonder if there will ever come a quiet moment. Of course, only by withstanding adversity can harmony arise, and we appreciate it all the more.

Hello, Gypsy.
Your tanka poem is symbolic, and I really like its message.
It's like people, with troubles or hatred, coming together and working out a peaceful resolution.
Your photos are beautiful and complement your profound messages.
Great poem.
Best wishes,
Cindy

Every River ends up in the sea. A constant feed. I enjoyed the tranquility of this beautiful piece, Gypsy. It flowed like the rivers in your poetry.
God bless,
Steve
