Such a pleasure. Thanks for leaving poetry in the comments! Love this tanka so much! Perfect phrasing. And has that pleasing depth. Lovely work new friend!
I am fascinated with the Haiku form after reading your recent newsletters, Dick. This is packed with information. You do a great job. I need to study and practice.
Aw yay! Always love to hear of a new convert haha. :-) It's a lifelong practice, and is very rewarding over time imo. Hit me up if you ever have any questions. Always keen to chat haikai.
Gosh! This will be a long journey. Where to begin? :) Thank you, Dick!
A pleasure Mary :-) Tanka is a really rewarding journey I have found, and lots of places to begin. My advice - start writing. The rest is gravy.

I would not have written this if it weren't for you, new friend :)
