mother dear hold tight
sunny disposition drifts
wind scattered daydreams
dandelion children fly
distant family settles
auburn hair ignites
supple lips sweetly parted
peach scented kisses
gaze simmered and beckoning
woman created in Spring

The first came to me watching my kids blow dandelions.
The second after seeing my wife in a dress for the first time this year 🤣💚

Lovely Mouse. I have never written a tanka and I’m not sure why 😆 Keep it up, it’s always great reading your creations.

Thank you, I’ll keep writing if people keep reading.
I’m sure you have a bundle of wonderful tanka just waiting in that secret little head of yours 😉
