Florida Nature

Florida back roads
                                orchards with horses grazing
                                      lead to Joe's Corner
                                   tastiest oranges around
                                 in the heart of the farmland

Laura, your Tanka flows so smoothly and centers on one important and valued gift that Florida offers us. Best wishes for the contest. Hugs, Sandra

This is a hauntingly beautiful poem that poetically draws on the allure of Florida's laid back life style. Emile. #7
