This 1-6-1, Such, has the proper syllable count and entertains us with the seductive images and terrific guitar accompaniment. Nice.

GBR,
Sultry, sensual, fantastic, and all those other cliches for excellence. You tied for first place! Way to go. I, the lowly Grasshopper, have never won a FanStory contest. So I, the lowly Grasshopper, do not know what it feels like to win. Except that, I, the lowly Grasshopper, has won vicariously with GBR. Well done.

Moi

"much" indeed! The poem is short but infuses deep passion, finely enhanced by the presentation as well. I think this speaks tomes in few words. Well done. Warm tender touch. Yum.

Blessings,

    Thank you. :) Your review is always a precious gift to me. Thank you for your kind words. The man and woman are lovers and best friends. He likes her as a dominatrix at times but it is just a game for them and often swap roles. But it could fit any situation the reader wants.

    I am happy that you are reading tanka and expanding your knowledge about this beautiful poetic form. Good job, honey, I am proud of you.

    Thank you for the stellar review and six stars!!!!

A very good contest entry. I used to say I didn't do well in contests, but I can't say that anymore. I won the last one I entered.

That's an unusual form, and one that would be super challenging to complete. I like your sentiments in this one. Reading your author notes, one of the the criteria for this form is the three lines must rhyme. Still enjoyed it! :)

This is a very good 1-6-1 poem you have penned with the one syllable for the first line and the meat of the second and then Yang for the last. Very good entry! Best wishes in the contest! Blessings, Teri
