I also like how your form changes when that perspective changes. In "Baby Steps" I like how your change of case evokes a toddlers uneven gate. I love the different perspectives on the crumbs in your tanka.Karin Fisher-Goltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10180838581250572921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868976411159042945.post-67112919352536813202015-02-20T23:29:44.041-05:002015-02-20T23:29:44.041-05:00I'm glad you like the tanka.

I listened to the sound and see how cleverly you crafted your poem to tell a story between two in front of a story that is happening in the background. You gave me an idea for a poem using my postcards from the past. Laura S. told me about her past postcard challenge.
