June Pearl Moon

Ann, thank you so much! There is no greater compliment than to know one's poem encourages another poet to read again! What a marvelous gift! The summer moons are just intoxicating to me. I am so glad that feeling of magic came through the lines. Hope you are doing well. Blessings! Happy Father's Day to your family!

Dearest Rhyme Time Friend, your words are like lovely pearls of luminescent moonlight - treasured gems and joy to my heart! Thank you for that gift that I hold close to my heart and for your congratulations! They mean so much to me like the happiness of the summer's first moon. Often I wonder about the impact of a tanka or haiku with their brevity of expression. It's gratifying to know the impact of these lines came through! Sending you blessings of a sweet strawberry moon poetry sis!

Hi Paula! I did see the full moon rising huge in the sky! What a treat! It was beautiful and serene. Thanks for sharing the moonlight! Be blessed with joy and peace.

Greetings dear friend! Many thanks for your beautiful message and your congratulations. I am so appreciative! It makes my heart happy to know how much you enjoyed this tanka. Writing tanka is like writing haiku for me - a whole lot in a small, impactful punch! Hope all is well with you my dear friend! Sending you blessings on pearly light!
