Thrilled to receive the following award:
distant slopes
turning blue at twilight
the soft folds
of this tweed blanket draped
around father's shoulders
Runner-up, The Linda Jeannette Ward Tanka Award
Judge's comments:
I was struck by the poet's apt use of natural imagery. The mountains are losing their shape and form as night begins to settle in. Pairing this image with the soft folds of the blanket (draped around father's shoulders) was so evocative. A fine tanka.
