About This Poem

SUMMER TIDES



 
warmth of evening lake

bathes our eyes in summer tides

as August awaits

  the closing of moon's flowers...

  we release our farewell kiss




----------
For Nathan’s Tanka (Season) Contest

    Yes! I absolutely love this my friend! I can feel the end of summer near with this incredible write! You have brought upon the ending the start of Autumn to bring...eventually soon that is! I really enjoyed this delightful piece that you've so illustriously brought forth for me to absorb in its fullness! "The closing of moon's flowers..." beautifully crafted line, I just love it! Wonderful piece, Great Work!!
