sublime decadence
all inhibitions run wild
lunar escapades
skinny-dipping by moonlight
while the man in the moon sleeps

Poetry is:
Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

Aloha with warmest regards, Cheryl Stewart Koomoa

Hey Cherie!
Long time no see!

What an awesome tanka!  You're soooo good at these.

Take care,
Melissa~

This is really an awesome tanka! But isn't it a bit cold out to be skinny dipping?

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I remember this one, sweet friend, I'm so happy you re-posted it as I always imagine skinny-dipping on the light side of the moon and finding the colors on the dark side of it! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beatiful heart, sweet Cheryl, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
