My way of saying thanks for being some of the most intriguing people I've ever met in any forum on or offline. YOU who read my work are an important link in my poetic family whose kindness and honesty cannot be matched, even stronger than natural-born family. And I thank you as Perrenial Poets with what I feel is an appropriate (and I'm still a little "green") tanka.

Poem Artwork

strangers imbed seeds
passers-by irrigate roots
wanderers come close
to inhale emerging thoughts
from One Spirit's lotus bloom

I don't know the first thing about Tanka, so I'll leave that alone -- looks good to me. The contents, however, are superb. We are bits and peices of all those who touch our live, and we're better off for it. Thanks, sis.
