* An empty swing sighs: I am invited to dream soft rocking brings peace Alignment to cosmic flow nourishment for hungry soul * |

Applause! You did it.....:-) Picture matches the poem perfectlyy. Tanka is an economic way to greatly express heartfelt emotion... this poems storyline does that exactly. "Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance." |

Billy and me have a swing that hangs from an old oak. There's a love seat that swings on the porch that's nice when its warmer too. I always love your poems and pictures! It was just a thought which made them run. It was just an act that killed them. |

Dear Jerry, thank you! I am happy that you enjoyed this moment of blissful dreaming. Thank you, dear Ford, for the applause and the inspiration in the first place! You are right, those two added lines (to the haiku form) allow a greater sharing of feelings. I did enjoy doing it and I will certainly create some more. I am very happy for you, dear Stacy Lynn, that you and your Billy have such a source of bliss in your garden! Thank you for your kind appreciation! Yes it does, dear James. Whenever there is an opportunity like this we must profit from it! Thank you for enjoying this. Love and bliss. Margherita |
