Hello my friend
Nice tanka about aging and coming to terms with the loss of youth. I agree with you. What else can we do? Good job and good luck in the contest.

Comment from Cybertron1986
The beginning was very touching as you connected nature with the changes which occur within our lives. In a way, this poem perfectly compared us to being a part of the cycle of nature. I found that very touching. Beautiful

So glad you could picture what I tried to convey!
Comment from Kaye Ouston
You have nailed this. It is well written and I think all of us can relate to the imagery that it paints. Growing older is a work in progress but sweet memories of lost youth help ease us into the changing seasons of future life.
Good luck with your entry

A good Tanka poem.
Yes, our youth does fleet, doesn't it?
I'm beyond the autumn myself and what I don't understand is where are the Golden Years that they promised us.
Maybe there is a poem in there.

I hear you - the only golden thing I see are the leaves - that we end up raking! Thank you for dropping to read and review.
