I had not noticed this expressive and lovely tanka before ... congratulations that you're on the winners' list; perhaps not many would know what ' hiemal' means....good thing I studied Latin!:)) I'm always intrigued by your command of vocabulary! // paul

Hi, there, glad to see you had an entry in my contest. A big congrats for your win with this lovely picture of winter. (I had counted off a bit for spelling. I think you meant breathes instead of breaths?)
