Sweet fragrance of rain
intoxicates the senses
as misty garden
becomes a small rain forest
fecund with primal spring joy

This is a treat- in my mind I can hear the unique jungle sounds- and picture your beautiful and inspiring Garden, as a Jungle of Joy--Good one, Elllie!!!
You make me Smile!

No Better Place do I know
Than where Hearts knit as
one,
For in that grand
experience,
The Better ALL become.

God Bless us All!!!

This is cool and refreshing. I have only written one Tanka, posted on another site. I especially enjoyed "fecund with primal spring joy"

Simply wonderful. I loved this immensely.

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

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Thank you all for your lovely replies!

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
