I am playing around with this form (not posted just yet). I like everything about this one. The title, the turn, and of course the chocolate!

Thanks, P.S. Best of luck in your "playing around." I'll look for it.

There's nothing more soothing on a cold damp night... well, almost nothing. Love this one, Milt.

Thanks, Lin. Yes, I can think of other things, but hot chocolate is right up near the top!

A lovely tanka. I have tried four for the first time but I am not sure they are up to standard.

Hey, Victor, make your own standard. I have been altering the old forms (just a tiny bit) when I feel I need to. It's my party, right?
