Just an old photograph
of a long ago wedding party;
see that child?
How could someone so small
in a handmade cardigan be me?

Good work. I like this one. I am not great at tanka myself, tend to jam at the haiku stage. I love the sentiment and the revelation, exactly the sort of thing you want to see in this form of poetry. Write some more tanka. I think you have the mind for it.
