Tanka: Love is in the Air

two whippets in winter jackets sniffing frozen grass together
two whippets in winter jackets peering over the reeds on the edge of a marsh

comforting me
in a frost-covered marsh
your love
filling winter air with peace
a rainbow’s grace that passes

We wish you all a very happy Thursday, a wonderful rest of the week and for those of you who celebrate, a very happy Valentine’s Day tomorrow.

With love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx

  1. They may have cold feet but there is something interesting nearby. A lovely Tanka oozing empathy and very engaging photos with a story Xenia. I wonder how close in you could crop the bird and reflection?
