Comment from Eternal Muse
How I wish I had a six for it! It's exquisite and elegant, light and poetically perfect. Enticing artistic presentation font and photo add to the reading delight. Great use of a vocabulary and good descriptive imagery.
This was simply elegant:
"'tis that veiled juncture
where silence clashes with din"
This should do extremely well in the contest, I may be looking at a winner.

Comment from Patty Palmer
I enjoyed reading your poem. It does seem that if we see something in the future it would come in a flash. That quickly you may have had an extended journey or vision and it's over almost immediately. But, you would probably think it was longer. Kind of like having a dream so real and feels like it lasted for hours and might have only a handful of seconds.
Good job!
Patty

Comment from lyenochka
Very well done metaphysical tanka. You bring up those soul-touching moments when the Spirit illumines us in a new or unique way and that leads to those treasures that last forever.
With all your busyness, you are certainly become the deeply reflective philosophical poet! Best wishes in the contest!

Thanx much, Professor, for your review on this 'shorty'... sometimes there are so many rules I just kinda improvise (LOL!) ;) Take care out there (sorry a bit behind again - packing/readying to move is not fun!)... ;) :) Yvette
Comment from Ronni
Hi Yvette,
It is indeed in solitary solitude, be it day or night, yet if a dimness or
darkness lingers within, an orbital flashing flicker bursts into serene
Faith's Light, messaging the soul to awaken with fathomless sight
and sublimation to eternity's awaiting troth.
Most profound tanka contest entry! I like this new form tanka style!
You...do it proud and then some! Always over the edge and into
another radar range of ingenuity and subliminal invocation.
Thanks for sharing, best of luck in contest!
Blessings always, Ronni (:)

where silence clashes with din
our soul awakens - this is a very provocative and contradictory image between the silence and the awakens of senses. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

Hi, Yvette. A very nice poem you've penned. I like the contrast of silence clashing with din. Our soul awakens... it's a very moving peace about our immortal soul. Excellent work.
Best wishes,
Cindy

Oh, Marcia -- thank you so very much, Beautiful Lady!! ;) These stars and your words are such a great 'boost' to a crazy week (and it's only Monday - ugh!) :) ;) I think you're right about the flashes!! ;) Thanx again for you and hope you're at 100% again!! ;) Yvette

You are most welcome, always. I'm getting there. Have had a new chapter up for several days and only 1 review. I hope that doesn't mean people are getting bored with it. It's a pretty important chapter that sets the stage for some reconciliation. Stay well and don't work too hard :)
