Have you heard the saying, "Naughty is the new nice?" :) I love your brightly colored flowers (your imagination is wonderful). Your use of the word phallic is perfection for this one. Such a joy to read.

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Tanka. It seems to me like upside down ice-cream cones that are growing on a tree wouldn't that be lovely just to go pick an ice-cream from a tree. lol..

Comment from Michele Harber
I had no idea you had a naughty side, but it's kind of cute to see. The poem is a fun and apropos accompaniment to the flowers you created, and when the writer is having fun with what she's writing, it makes it that much more fun to read.

You should have seen them before I added the pink to their balls. Lol. Could not resist that one. Thank you for your humorous review
-
For shame! (tee hee) I like this fun side of you.
-
Haha. Silly. You should have seen it before I added a pink fuzz on the balls. It was originally the same color as the spikes. Use your imagination. That is when I got the idea. I could have called it Fuzzy Balls. Dang
-
Fuzzy Balls sounds like a bar drink - and probably is one somewhere. I'm probably better off I only saw the "safe" version of your painting. Who knows what my comments might have been otherwise!!

Comment from Pantygynt
This is probably the best line three I have seen you do. It works so well as a satori and quite clearly it is a pivot as well. I wonder how many will misread that second lie as 'bottoms'. Your naughty side is clealy your best side.

Lol. I am hysterical. Maybe I should have
said bottoms. But I wanted to emphasize the nuts. OK. Recovered now. Thank you so much for the extra star and the humorous review
Comment from Mastery
Oh, my. And I thought the Eagle was good. This is marvelous, mostly because you invented a flower so to speak. LOL And the rich colors (my fave by the way) How did you get that? By toning down purple with titanium white?
Thank you fro sharing, my friend. Bob

Hi Bob. For the flowers, I used crimson (not alizarin crimson, just plain old crimson. The top is plain crimson. Don?t water it down. The bottom also starts out with plain crimson. Then take a quarter inch brush and work some titatium white into the bottom. It will turn pink. Best to mix it on the palette and make a light pink. So, just two colors. For the dots on the spikes, use tiny brush with teeny tiny bits of yellow. I think I used cadmium yellow. You can work it in the way I did or create a new flower. Thank you for your lovely review

You are so wise and such a sweetheart. thank you. Bob

Hi, Pam. Your colorful painting lights up the page as you showcase your art. Your pairing it with this verse does emphasize all of the reds and pink blossoms.
All the best,
Melissa

Comment from Miranda Langston
it's a good poem and i like the artwork you chose to accompany this. i thought Tanka poetry had the 5-7-5-7-7 syllable count though... whether it does or not, it's still an excellent poem and definitely deserves 5 stars

Hi Miranda. Tanka can be shorter. This is 3-5-3-5-5. That is the format the Tanka instructor has asked me to use. He is Pantygynt. Thank you for your lovely review
