My Muse

On gossamer wings
she glides through neon moonbeams
singing while I weep.

Lovely muse - I should chase you ...
but cold Earth claims me again.

Dear J. I., your Tanka is absolutely gorgeous. I feel the same way when my muse slips away from me too. Exquisite poetry! Congratulations for your excellent win in Brian's contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
