Rose arbor alight
in the dark of predawn hour
crystal flakes of snow
falling upon this garden
Oh the magic of it all!


Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart.

I really liked the emotion in this one. Very nice.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

You paint a magical picture, Ellie.

Oh the wonder of it all...the knowing under the blanket of snow is summer sleeping!

Oh I can definetley see the magic. I see a garden with vines growing on an abandoned garden shed, and the snow falling on them, making them crystal shells with little bits of green showing through. I could go on and on. Awesome tanka, Ellie!
