MERRY CHRISTMAS PAM: You think so much like I think. Go to my portfolio and scroll down to entry twelve. Tell me what you think about that coincidence. I like chess too, Pam. I'm no Bobby Fisher. But I really like playing a good player. How about I'll play you a game? Ladies first...so I'll answer your first move. Each time we exchange reviews we'll enter our next move.
I'll set up my board...when I receive your move, I'll make it on my board, answer it, and let you know what my answer is. I really believe that it will be as fun as a barrel of Orchid monkeys.
*SMILE,* God bless you, Pam. Cordially: rhonnie69.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS PAM: The name of the poem that I want you to read is: "America; God Shed His Grace On Thee." It resembles your poem; "Majestic."
    Currently it's at the 15th entry in my portfolio. rhonnie69.

I love the eagles and you've done a superb job describing this majestic bird. It does appear that they do own the skies soaring far above the landscape. I like this well written ode to eagles. Very nicely done Pam!

Hi

This is an excellent written Tanka, liked how your expanding and doing other formats of the Tanka, still ensuring it is stoll short, long, short, long, long.
You have mastered these Tanka form. Great picture of the nird with claws tucked away, flying through the air.

Great job
Regards
Tia

They are majestic creatures and also fierce predators. The glide through the air - owning it. And all other birds would do well to stay out of their way!

Oh wow, that video is crazy cool!

I love the single word opening of this poem - "majestic". It really sets the tone for the following lines which portray well the majesty and beauty of this powerful bird. Well done.

This is a very lovely piece! So often we gaze on the beautiful
creatures in the wild and don't dwell on the predatory nature
they must have--which God gave them--to survive!

    Yes, Janice. I think of the prey animal too. But their death is merciful compared to starving to death. Thank you for the great review

A very well-written Tanka about the eagle and its majestic appearance that force respect from animals and humans. The national bird of USA is a precious bird of prey.

I gave this a six for so many reasons, I do not know where to start. Your multi-talented with your art and your poetic use of words. The overall effect is amazing, in my personal opinion. I wish you the best of luck with this and keep producing. What a talent(s) you have!
