Tanka Orchid
Her magnificent
magenta blooms waved by the
wide sun filled window
she craved to flaunt her ample
blooms tended by melting ice.

Lovely snapshot.
I love the word ” tended “
Nice, Linda! I do that melting ice thing with my orchid too.
Beautiful! I love “flaunt her ample /blooms. Made me think of a large woman pushing her chest out to flaunt her ample bosom.
Definitely like

Thanks all! My first tanka!
A great first Tanka!
I agree – a wonderful first tanka! I know how much you like forms, so I hope we see more.
Great Tanka!
And good info on orchid tending! I killed an orchid by not knowing this!
I love a well crafted small poem. Thank you!
