Tanka: Moonlight Lingers

waterfall flowing over rocks, a face appears in the tumbling flow

winter moon
reflected in waterfalls
her spirit
familiar and soothing
beyond her sweep of sky

  7. Great tanka , it’s very mystical. Wonderful waterfall photo, I can imagine it teeming with nature folks peeking out watching you take their photo.
    Your Beauties are in top form. They are such gracious beings. Give them a hug for me.
