singular brightness
longing for the distant past
dreams of forgiveness
the answers bloom like flowers
in the forsaken journey

Today’s prompt for Colleen’s challenge is a photo prompt, I could resist the cuteness of this little one and quickly wrote this tanka.
An agile spring wind Carrying sorrow and joy Puzzle from nature
Flowers and fragrance filling our senses Elements of truth opening hearts Flickering dreams Where the space fathers purpose Beyond the walls the world waits
I’ve been without inspiration lately, it’s difficult to sit and to do something else that it’s not related to my office work. I’ve spending lots of time in the garden and reading. I guess, sometimes we only need to take in and others to create.
Today I decided to give a push and write a little, I wrote few pages in my journal and came up with this poem, a Gogyohka for Colleen’s challenge Poet’s choice. Remember you should read each line in one breath!
Stay Safe!
Abundance of spring Letting go of the self-doubt Bringing dreams afloat
Past Present The plain truth Moment between Waiting for a sign Tears turned out diamonds In the middle of the fog She knows, the mirror does not lie Scars are embroidered into laces The exhausting cries now sound like a valse
I’ve chosen the theme for this week’s Tanka Tuesday Challenge: The day after. With many things going on in this world right now, that I thought we should look ahead a little bit and maybe see some light.
This week Tanka Tuesday challenge’s prompt is a photo prompt. I soon as I saw this photo I had the feeling of isolation, being lost in the middle of the forest. When I looked closer at it, I saw the girl had a certain contentment in her expression, it’s like she had chosen to be there, she was fine and protected by the tree in the background.
Carried away to another dimension Leaving behind all the struggling and oppression She is free and protected now Breathing deeply and staring ahead Solitude won't be dreaded
Wondering about The desire for spring freshness She graceful designs A lavender-scented room Letting go of the sorrow
The words for this week Colleen’s poetry challenge are Idea and Fancy, synonyms only! I’ve chosen Design and Desire.
