    Nice

    I have never heard of a tanka poem,but having read the authors notes,it is an appealing style.I do not feel I could pen any thing of any strength using this tecnique,but you did so,so wonderfully.

    Pixie dust

    Pixie dust is so pretty,this short write has the feel of something that could be the message inside a greetings card.I enjoyed the brief,beautiful tone this write has.Very delicate,very dainty.
