Barren and still like one light shines in solitude empty parking lots disappearing so quickly no traces left of mankind Gray mist thickening shadows rising in the fog bereft of all sound echoes of yesterday fade unbroken silence, lingers. seek the flame within yourself |

You captured this silence and emptiness so very well, dear Donna, I felt like standing there surrounded by the melancholy of the scene. Yet, in the lingering silence, we also can find peace. You convey this too. Love, Margherita  |

Donna, your photo is hauntingly beautiful! ~ as is your poem. A sense of desolation and emptiness permeates your well-written tankas. May 2006 be a year of wonderful new beginnings. ~ You certainly deserve that after the year you just had! Warm, loving hug, Linda |

I agree with the others, this was hauntingly beautiful and a bit like standing by the ocean at 3am watching the pull of the waves to the moon's call. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
