a breath seeking closure a shift at the moment hidden beneath leaves and branches being
This week Tanka Tuesday is synonyms only! The words are life and move, I’ve chosen being and shift for a Cinquain poem: 2, 4, 6, 8, 2 syllables.
singular brightness
longing for the distant past
dreams of forgiveness
the answers bloom like flowers
in the forsaken journey
the prompt for tankatuesday this week is poet’s choice and since it’s full moon, my obvious choice is a poem about the full moon! hope you enjoy this tanka!
blue immensity
from the skies to the oceans
you have all my heart
wondering what is hidden
beyond treasures and despair
it’s time for tanka tuesday, our own choice of words, for today i’ve chosen heart and despair.
i took this photo last week, the sky was so blue, no clouds around. i was waiting outdoors for my son to give me a ride and i was wondering what is beyond all this blue. not about the universe, planets, atmosphere and stuff, but about the mystery, the magic, what is there that we can’t see?
i wasn’t sure if it is appropriate to make a haiga using a tanka, instead a haiku, but i had more words and it wouldn’t fit as haiku, they needed to be written.
hope you have a great day!
spinning emotions
harmonizing my movements
obsessed with the tracks
the scratches being buffed out
only pleasure and lightness
This week words for tanka tuesday are hobby and play, synonyms only, so i go with obsessed and pleasure.
