- Autumn Reverie -

                                   sunrise gemstone glow
                              sound of rasping tangled leaves
                                 landscape through the haze
                             time blessed with the richest hues
                                   reflects the joy of childhood

This exquisite tanka is a veritable balm for the soul, crafted with the utmost artistry Anne-Lise. The seamless flow of words and the delicate imagery, particularly in the opening and closing lines, evoke a profound sense of admiration within me.
