windshield theater

tailgating driver
watches windshield theater
natures reflection
geese fly over power lines
fade to black screen... end credits

.. love your blog place... it has been a long while since saying hello... and your writing has always been a pleasure to seek and see... it is a good expression of a particular place in a particular time that somehow once we move on becomes elusive and dim... those were my immediate thoughts as i passed thru your tanka... and the form of tanka is just the right vehicle to approach ...

Really enjoyed this poem. Tanka is such an interesting poetic form. You've inspired me to write one again soon. :<)

I love the unusual angle, and I always enjoy your vocabulary! Tanka are fun to write ... Hope it's not too cold in your neck of the woods. It's been a slow spring here.

For me this really captures the moment, as well as the feeling of being in the moment. Beautiful!
