This tanka, Sky and Sea, has the proper formatting and finds the ways that nature and a distant lover may find the means to communicate using the wind and water.

This is a beautiful tanka, and I thank you for posting! I'm glad you wrote about the rules and history of tanka itself, because many FS readers will not know the rules that bound you during this writing. Good luck to you!

The posted picture is simply superb. Almost perfection I thought. Then I read your poem, purely divine. The picture hadn't delivered justice at all. Your words flowed delightfully.

This was very evocative. I liked how i could visualize either a body part for the touch or a location where the couple meets. It was romantic and could have been provocative yet you kept the sentiment pure. Gretchen

Your words cause imagines in my mind and the presentation just adds to this perfect experience. This poem is so romantic and filled with passion, yet extremely innocent. I loved it. Thank you.

This is quite romantic, Gypsy. I love the footprints being taken by the Ebb tide. Beautiful sentiment. The artwork almost portrays the dancer as a butterfly.
God bless,
Steve

This is a beautiful Tanka poem with a lovely presentation. Your images are complementary to the words, so colorful and attractive, drawing the reader in. And your words are descriptive, magical, very sensory with great imagery. Beautiful job!

Exquisite! This is beautifully imagined and presented! The verse flows with pleasing effect, its repetition in the first line reinforces the sensuality of the theme. A virtual six from me. Thank you Debbie
