I had fun writing this poem for W3 challenge this week. I’ve never heard of this poetry form before. Blitz poem! See the guidelines below.
Carol Anne’s prompt guidelines
This week’s challenge is to write a blitz poem! Here’s how it works:
It sounds like a lot of rules, but once you get the hang of the rhythm it’s fun and fast-flowing!
For this week’s theme, allow your flow of writing to be guided by whatever you associate with the transition from summer to fall. Let the images and connections reflect that seasonal shift, even as the poem races forward with its own momentum.

Today’s prompt for Gratitude week with Michelle is about being grateful for paying attention and awareness to our surroundings and feelings. When I’m in my garden I pay attention to all the tiny little things/moments: a bird song, a butterfly, a feather, all the beauty that makes me smile, and also, to the not so nice stuff, like worms, beetles that eat my beautiful plants and make me angry. Well, I pay attention, and one day without expecting a dragonfly sits on a leaf close by, and at that moment I knew it wasn’t only an insect on a leaf but a beautiful messenger delivering love when I needed most.
Tanka Tuesday is week is “Write a butterfly cinquain (2-4-6-8-2-8-6-4-2) and include a colour”. I didn’t have a recently butterfly photo, however this dragonfly is gorgeous and perfect for my poem.

Ekphrastic photo is the prompt for Tanka Tuesday this week. Annette Rochelle Aben provided us with the gorgeous photo above. As soon as I saw it, I was reminded of the freedom and passion the butterflies are able to demonstrate while kissing the flowers in my garden. I wrote a butterfly cinquain (2, 4, 6, 8, 2, 8, 6, 4, 2) to complement my thoughts.
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! 🙂
