the sun melts slowly a silence falls on the land an eagle circles my heart pauses in wonder seems all so larger than life AP: 1st place 2023, Honorable Mention 2020 Posted on April 23, 2018

There is often an introspective feeling that accompanies the end of day, especially when we take time to appreciate the glory of nature. It can remind us that we are but specks in the universe, Line. There is a special wisdom in this tanka. Lovely! Hugs, carolyn
