Hi Harry, i have to agree with everyone else, this is an excellent Tanka. I do have a hankering for reading those poems that each time you read them you can pick out a new meaning to the words. This ine is a seven Harry. Have a good day....Mike.

Really good Tanka my friend. Great description. So often we find someone we think has eyes we could literally fall into and drown. We think without that person in our life we just don't have much reason to get up in the morning. Loved this. So much said with so few words. A seven from me. God Bless, JB
