oh, I completely Love this, Lauren. It’s so full of Heart that comes right into the reader- me! as read…what a wonderful gift this one is to all. Love, Linda
I liked this a lot I must say! Could you maybe fill me in on this “tanka” business? It’s inspiring to see how you tackle all of the different elements of fictional writing.
Alex, your comments truly make my day, thank you! I don’t know much about Tankas, but the basics are the 5-7-5-7-7 syllable format…they’re a continuation of a 5-7-5 haiku…I’m not sure of any ground rules for topics to write about, but I write from the heart about anything! If you have time, check out http://caddoveil.com. She’s one of my favorite blogging sisters and writes wonderful Tanka..thanks for your encouraging complement again! 🙂
I LOVE this, Lauren–boogie-ing and celebrating with you today!! God bless you abundantly–love, Caddo
Aww…thanks, Caddo, I’m glad you’re joining in! Hugs and Blessings, sis!
This is an amazing tanka. I wanted to just roll around and dance. No room for that in the house, though. 🙂
Rigel, you made me smile! Thank you so much and I’m glad you enjoyed this musical bit of joy! I appreciate your visit, too! 🙂
