The Abandoned Place - Tanka Poem by Rose Marie Juan-austin

Part 3---Instead of talking trash, you give us God's earth to contemplate and behold in all its beauty. Top marks, my dear poet

Part 2---but you celebrate God's gift to His children: 'the gentle swishing Of leaves in the trees The rhythmic chirping of birds And the whistling of the wind.

The sound of mankind can be so ugly--with its talk of hate, war, racism, sexism, all the-isms that paint our lives a dirty smelly poisonous gray

Better than a picture, better than a film, your poetic description not only perfectly alive but also full of the emotion from the excellent poetry, derrived. To my favorites, **********

Sterling imagery! Great balance. Very evocative. I can visualise the scene in my mind.

Serene!

Super tanka from a super poetess............Top marks and to my favourite

Wonderful poem- tanka - rhythmic and full of joy - the sound of nature - the gentle swishing of leaves, the chirping of birds and the whistling wind....a bliss of solitude.
