I do hope your Christmas is not too painful. I enjoyed this little five line and the painting too, especially the snow effect, achieved I believe by the use of a sponge perhaps.

Oooh, Pam, how adorable. Your painting is so cute and I love the wide open swinging arms.. you did such good work. Your tanka is the perfect vehicle to share your baby penguin with us. Well done.

What a cute idea for the penguin to dance the flapper! My image of them in video: they are always flapping their wings as they waddle to the ocean.

Nice artwork that accompanies your piece.

Good luck on your upcoming medical procedure.

A sweet offering and so nice of you to give us a poem and lovely art when you're not feeling well, dear Pam. I hope and pray your neck surgery goes well, and that you'll be fully recovered very soon.
Sending you my best as always and blessings for Christmas,

A very well-written tanka about the dance of the penguin baby emperor that seems to be a happy feet dance that bring smiles to the faces of the onlookers.

I wondered if this was a real dance. They must be awfully cute, lifting t heir legs and waving t heir wings, especially if it was filmed and set to music. It probably has been. Nature's Dancers sounds like a delightful series. I'm sorry to hear about your neck pain. Praying it gets well.
