overnight the leafing returns to this dying oak beneath my hand such desire for spring

A beautiful tanka, Marilyn. Thanks! Below I'll share one for where I am today: Penny ———— yellow leaves drift toward each other on the still green grass— I turn to face the wind this autumn dusk
Marilyn, What a beautifully light yet deep tanka! Thanks for sharing this…
You make me feel it too. And Penny, yours is very lovely as well.
Marilyn, There's a healing in your words… I am grateful. con afeccion, Merrill
Thank you, Rosemary.
