This week Tanka Tuesday is a little bit silly. Colleen wants that we create our own poetry form! We should combine our favourite form with another one of our choice. And we must give a name to it!
I took this photo a few weeks ago, the foggy was dense when I started my walk and little by little it started to dissipate. It was a wonderful early morning and I knew I would write a poem about it.
I’m combining my favourite form, Haiga (Haiku + photography), with Choka (5 + 7 )n + 7 + 7 lines at the end. I’m naming my new poetry form Choiga!
a foggy morning the fantasy meets the sky the answer is there ever out of reach blending in one split second balance is missing transforming gloom into hope stop the invasion the past dissipates away hallucination words without any meaning as the summer days go by
I hope you like my creativity! 🙂

Thanks, Jude! Fog is really pretty, I’m lucky to be by a river, so I have lots of foggy mornings here.

Thanks so much! The detail of 5 + 5 lines between the haiku and the choka is the charm of it! 🙂 Glad you liked!

Fog is indeed magical. I saw a fully appointed buck one autumn in my neighbors yard.
It kind of reminded me of Harry Potter and his Patronus!
Lovely invention!

Fog or mist definitely changes the form if the landscape, and also our thoughts. (K)

Wow, Elizabeth! I’m impressed. My mind goes haywire when I think about getting even more creative with forms of poetry than the forms themselves. Good for you! Great photo, too. 🙂
