Autumn's spread across the ground
while breezes flit each leaf around
amber, green and orange abide
and me, I sit cozily inside

VAS

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Sounds like a cozy setup to me. What's that in your hand? Hot buttered rum, but of course . . . ah . . .

Vas, short but sweet and to the point...a verbal "snapshot". Let me see...how does the saying go... a picture is worth a thousand words.

Oh, please!  Get out and shuffle those leaves around!
They are such ephemeral fun!

Good to "see you" again Virginia, it has been such a long time . . . I thought you were among the lost.
Hope you are well and comfortable.

You have given me a tanka idea . . .

I am amazingly well after having a surprise triple bypass on April 21.

It's been so long since I spent time here, I can't even recall what a "tanka" is.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
