Indeed, I like this tanka a lot. Well, it possesses superb imagery, voice, and tone! What a joy it is to watch the birds of flight. Keep on sharing. Greg

I do really enjoy seeing these birds. They come by in the spring and again in the fall. They must be migratory in my area. They add so much interest and color to the garden. Great work you have penned. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Sweet Kim. I used to see a little boy run by the grooming shop where I worked. He loved feathers and was always excited to find one. Great write. God Bless, JB
