Very nicely done. This is yet another form of poetry that is new to me. You did a great job on this piece. I can't pick a favorite line because as a whole it is beautiful. To find your soul mate is a blessing. To lose one soul mate is a tragedy but knowing their soul is your mate and from you they shall never leave is more than comforting it is heart touching. Excellent job. GOD Bless you :)

This is really good. You've done a fine job with the message of this and with sharing your first tanka. I like it and think that this well written poem will do well in the contest. Well done.

This is a sad poem about a departed soulmate. I can relate to this little poem. The picture and light blue background goes well with the words as well. Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.

Hello Kahpot, I just love how all this fits together, it is a carefully woven work and one I liked thinking about and seeing. Very visual with that interesting picture. And our soul being a mate, fits with the imagery used in the Bible, the 'brides of Christ'. I have no suggestions for improvement. I liked it just as it is, thanks, Ana.

The image and title you chose are what drew my attention... I chose the same pair a few months back. Same image, same title, but different where it matters most. This is a beautiful piece, heart breaking, but beautiful. A sweet fair well to the love of one's life, it's powerful. Great job, Kahpot

this, my friend, is a marvelously written tanka, so heartfelt which makes it come across with power that anyone can relate to. That is the big trick. I know tankas like haikus have pivot lines and I'm not sure about punctuation, as I've written 25 or 30 of them. I'm also not quite sure about capitalization in one, as you don't do either in haikus. As far as adhering to syllable count and the emotional impact, it's a true winner for me, well-done

Excellent choice of artwork to complement a wonderfully penned tanka. I was scrolling through the works to review and when I read yours, I didn't even realize it was a tanka until I finished reflecting on the point of the piece. It's always refreshing when the message outshines the form. Well done.

This is an excellent poem, I recently lost a dear friend and your words are full of comfort. Your tanka form is full of feeling and emotion. Excellent use of words that flow smoothly. Nothing less than a six.
