This tanka does all the right things. The 5-7-5-7-7 set up looks good, and the theme of allowing ourselves to let go has some soil with what we all really want.

The key to finding inner peace is to release the past to Him and surrendering to His will. Nice poem. Blessings for a wonder filled Sunday, Patricia

Inner peace is always a good thing, especially if you can share it in a way that others will also benefit. It is a good piece of work. Thank you for writing and sharing.
