That's sad that it is an "impossible" dream and yet there must have been comfort in being able to dream of the one with whom a reciprocal relationship is impossible as a sea aflame and a sun freezing.

imposibles <-- imposSibles
I dreamt you love me <-- dreamt is past tense, should 'love' be past tense to?


other than that, nice dreamy tanka
good imagery

I feel all of the reviews I wrote in response to your poetry are all the same. It's because you're so good, I have nothing but admiration for you. Maybe if you wrote a horrible poem, I'd have something to say. I doubt you're capable of writing a horrible poem. Thank you for sharing your God given talent with us.

Hi MariVal,
you use the best artwork my friend... your presentation is always top notch-exceptional.

These words that you couple with your images, is for me, the moment a thought takes hold and slows the action of time, while making the breath a little more interim within its desire.

The tanka is yet another one of your works that demand me to flow within its rhythm, to linger in the intentions of the original thought manifesting this pause in time... yes, a captured thought, floating in daydreams!

You are very in touch with your emotions and your articulate them with a touch of magic and finesse.
Stunning!

With our thoughts we create...
all possibilities.

Warm regards,
James.

I like your tanka poem- excellent picture presentation - beautiful girl dreaming- good use of metaphors painting - frozen sun - burning ocean - for dreaming- perhaps' 'while 'dreaming ? Take a peek at your syllable count ? 7=. 9? Love me or loved me? Good job - hug
Yep you are right- I was reading impossibilities - not impossibles - while dreaming impossibles -
is correct - in your notes
You wrote â??I dreamt you â??loved meâ?? ( grammar good)!in the poem you wrote â?? love me? Good job

This was a great tanka, Gypsy. I loved the pictures of the young woman and the dual flowers following the words. I liked that you created the words around what you created. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

Gypsy, your Tankas are soooo good! Even when your words search for an unobtainable love, the smooth look of the fonts and colorful accompanying pictures make my heart smile.

This showed how it seems impossible for you to be lived by that certain someone. Like saying when pigs fly or when he'll freezes over. Very good. Clever use of imagery to show this. Gretchen
