Tanka/Prose (other)

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a story about personal evolution, growth, and learning. Alice's journey teaches us to find beauty in our own lives, be flexible, have faith in ourselves, embrace the unexpected, and never give up on our dreams. The story also represents the child's struggle to survive in the confusing world of adults, and teaches us to overcome the open-mindedness that is characteristic for children

She finds the pink planet, musing Alice Liddell's Imagination is the only weapon in war with reality. Sky's canvas, brushed cotton candy clouds where marshmallow mountains peak and the seventh sun rides low 'til the man in the moon awakens. White light and red, filters a pink-tint, nebulous fringed rose gold. Pearlescent beams lap at her legs, silhouettes blossom as silky waves of jasmine kiss, spiral, and envelop her open-mindness to embrace the unexpected Alice would be proud realization pink planet a bountiful life journey

Awards at the end of an imaginary rainbow of colours. Who said poetry has to be ta-dum, ta-dum .. Give me a vivid imagination anyday and "embrace the unexpected". Have a nice weekend, Anaya :)

Wow. This has to be a winner. The glowing diction in your prose is gorgeous, and just exudes images that delight one's imagination. Your Tanka is word perfect and accompanies the prose as a well matched partner. This is really wonderful Anaya. OK so I sound gushy, but this is honest praise. I really love it.

I love the alliteration in this poem "canvas candy clouds, where marshmallow mountains peak". Quite imaginative and visual. Its amazing how a literally work written a century ago can still impact us today. Enjoyed

Very imaginative Anaya.. Your poem concludes with a sense of gratitude and wonder, as the protagonist embraces the bountiful life journey that her open-mindedness has led her on. Overall, this poem celebrates the power of imagination to transcend reality and lead us to unexpected and wondrous places, reminding us to embrace the unknown with open arms and a curious spirit.

This is absolutely stunning, the creative use of imagery and depth of this poem truly is impeccable. So many lines stood out for me but i mostly loved “ A seventh sun is low on the horizon 'til the man on the moon awakens White light mixes with red light, filtering through the atmosphere“ how dreamy and imaginative is that and your use of colors and flowers really enhances the beauty of what you’ve conveyed here. I love silky waves of jasmine and pink tinted sky and rose gold as well as marshmallow mountains. So beautiful! And artistic. Pleasure reading this. A fave for me
