This write is captivating in the way I remember Hans Anderson's fairy tales captivated me. The latter were of course much lengthier. In your poem I like the action verbs, the images and how your words stir the imagination.

Hello, friend!

Haven't seen you in a while. Hope you are well and writing lots and lots. *smile*

I really enjoyed your tanka, and so far, it's been the best entry I've seen for this contest. It is sharp and intuitive and presents a clear picture of this moment in time. I enjoyed! Good luck!

A metaphorical portrayal of Winter as She tightens Her grip, spreading 'White shroud of beauty' beautiful image for the dormant season and a lovely pic

This is a beautifully crafted Tanka you have developed for the Tanka Poetry Prompt contest. Your choice of artwork is superb and sparks the imagination about Wintertime. Well done.

I think the last line should read: "sets the stage for enjoyment", it's just a suggestion Trisha, I loved the sentiments and the joy in winter here, love Dolly x

As the stage - On her stage (just a thought)

This is a lovely tanka. The satori works well here. The first two lines definitely show her in one season, then the final season she imparts her glorious white wealth. Excellent verbiage and that image is to die for and elevated this tanka nicely. I wish you all the best of luck in the contest, dear. Nothing not to like. Keep writing. It suits you :)
