I’m still playing catch-up, Elizabeth. So sorry. May I use this Tanka in my book an example? You retain all rights to your poem and I give you credit in the Bibliography. I love where you went with this. ❤

A divine delight….that is so perfect for a sunrise. When I used to go to work very early in the morning, I would sometimes have to pull off the road just to marvel at the sky.
