Brilliant--stunnng and fresh imagery--elegant alliteration in D--as fine a tanka as I've ever seen. Extra credit for using title lines to advantage rather than repeating lines of poem!

Hi amada,
Your tanka form appears to be in good order and your entry offers nice alliteration and imagery.
I appreciated your notes. I wake up in the early morning almost everyday and experience similar phenomenon.
Radiant dawning indeed.
Best wishes in the contest,
AnnaLinda

Thank you, AnnaLind; your comments are lovely.
Comment from lyenochka
This is so lovely! I love that your the window is "drowsy" and that this "moonbeam leap" brought a welcome, fresh light into the dark bends in the house as well as in the spirit. Wish I still had a six for you.
One minor thing that I've been told that you might consider is to avoid using the same word twice in such a small poem. But I liked your adjective "fresh" here.

That had to be quite an experience, Nancy. Have you figured out what it was or what you think it might have been yet? You certainly have done a good job of coloring the image with your text here, my friend. Bless you. Bob
