Enjoyed the lovely scene that you painted with your cinquain tanka. Love the moonflower picture, too! You cover the sight and sensation and sounds of this summer evening. Congratulations on the win!!

I like the fact about herons, I didn't know that. I like it. Perfect satisfaction of the line and syllable count and the don't rhyme consideration yet you tell an understandable story. Nicely done.

I like this poem, particularly the last line where you describe the sound of the heron. Well done. I hope it does well in the cinquain tanka contest.

I love this Cinquain Tanka with it wonderful images and delightful personification, especially the moonflowers hiding from the summer rain. The picture complements it well.

Your poem about moonflowers is lovely. The pictures are beautiful and add much to your work. It follows the guidelines while still flowing in a gently manner. Good luck on the contest.

I like this poem - it has excellent flow - tying together very well proving a clear - uncomplicated picture - which you only require a brief explanation for in your notes. Your presentation is also excellent providing a beautiful picture of the subject in a size that is easy for the reader to see! - and in balance with the page - also the written message - in balance and not unbalanced - if just realized how important this is - good lesson for my own future entries as well !!!! Good Job.

Exceptional on all fronts. The beauty of the Heron calling its mate coupled with the the elusive moon flower paints a gentle and peaceful picture of creation. It is a wonderful soothing poem.

All the best, Yard

All the best! You deserve to win.
