An amazing picture to accompany this delightful winter wedding scene. My daughter married in the winter (the first time) but that's another story. It was beautiful and magical and you have captured all that here in your wedding day poem.

Well done.
Blessings
Janet

The snowy cold setting seems a good contrast for the fiery passion of the bride and groom. In this very short poem you have created a vivid image of the bride and groom running through the snow and the emotional context speaks for itself.

A very well-written winter tanka. A winter wedding is always beautiful and magical. Snow on a wedding day will be remembered for life.

I love the contrast 'twixt winter's coldness and the heat of passion's fiery, frenzied love in your poem. Good alliteration with "blissful bride" and "fiery frenzied". A new love is a wonderful thing! Great picture to complement your poem!

Very nice! Good luck in the Winter Tanka contest!

Connie

What a wedding to remember. My niece was also in a winter snowy
wedding last April 30. What fun to be outside for photos. Yes, I like
your photo and passion deep in their hearts. Great entry and memories.

Very well written tanka, Anonymous Poet. Your syllable count is good, there is concrete imagery portrayed in your first two lines.
Your pivot line is perfect. That enables your poem, in part, to be read in reverse and have it sound just as good.
Great job with this.
Best wishes in the contest.
