Entwined





In pure love entwined
the knittings of a mother,
Through icy cold winds
embrace child's subtle being,
As warmth shows on rosy cheeks.

i Dr. Upma, firstly, congratulations on your win. I have started to look more at different forms now, the smaller forms, for now i can see the skills of the poet within them. In these few lines there is heart, The lives of a child and mother ever entwined. This is a well written Tanka, had to be on the winning list. A seven, for i do feel the Love as i read.
