Ice snakes in her hair
Blue eyes with cold and fury
Skin of ivory pearl
a gown of bitter cold stars
She is the only ice queen

Hey Wind! I think this is a really GREAT tanka. I only have one problem with it. It's a bit hard to read the large print. It detracts from the beauty of the peice.

Same for me here, it's too BIG to read properly.

Make it a bit smaller en center it, it will look a lot nicer.

Let's see how it would look smaller...

since I couldn't edit it.... I didn't mean for it to look so big... But I would have liked it a little more if it were slighly bigger than that Sunshine. It just makes it look so short and small.

Excellent tanka!  I'm sorry that you weren't able to edit it to your liking.  It really is an apt picture in words.
