Amaryllis by Jan Harbon

Third musing in a Tanka form flower series...
________________________________________


Amaryllis 

(Tanka)

  

Wrapped delicately

around velveted smoothness

gliding on plush stem

she meets blossom's emergence

in heady pearlescent bud

This Tanka reveals your unique ability to express visual beauty in words that paint a picture even more beautiful than the work of art that accompanies it. Like Lydi, I think your words reveal something much more than what we see on the surface. It is a beautiful piece of writing.

Reviewed by E. Richardson 10/4/2007
mercy me...here you use of of my favorite forms of verse and used it extremely well I might add and wedded it to the vivid art...There is an art form called the picture haiku, which uses the same technique...I guess this then would be a picture tanka of sorts.
Outstanding work my friend.

This tanka is powerful, yet fragile.

The artwork, both brush and pen, is
a treat to absorb. Thank you!!

Oh my goodness...swooning here and fanning myself. A tanka about nature? Ahem, perhaps it is just me, but I think not! LOL The delicate nature of the imagery is splendid. Seriously, a gorgeous write here, Taylor. Lydia

You paint the picture so perfectly with your words Tay, that the artwork itself is almost lost, (although I loved it as a combination piece). This is dreamy stuff and as ever superbly crafted. Hope all well? Much love Panda :)x

Knowing flowers... and the words to describe them ...
is like having the secret keys to a kingdom, and
this is what you've given to us in this work.
Thank you. - Bill

Beautiful as the flower itself. I like your flower series and with your natural eye for beauty am eager to see thewm blossom. I moved to Tampa...new career change and happiness is as abundant here as the beautiful birds and flowers. My son and his family are just around the corner too and that is the main reason I moved. You seem happy as well. How's your world?
Love,
Susan
