Thanks Lynn they are hard, I'm trying different forms lately but I find Tankas a little too restrictive with the enforced syllable count, something like senryu, not really my cup of tea. Thanks for the visit and comment.

Thanks Richard trying different forms trying to master the Tanka seems easy but syllable restrictions are brutal to creativity!
