Tanka Tuesday this week is in commemoration of Colleen’s 65th birthday. She asked us to write our own poetry form using 65 syllables. The form I created contains 3 stanzas: the first and second 6-5-6-5 and the third one 6-5-5-5. I’m naming it Boomer!
The tulips are for Colleen! Happy Birthday!
renewal
searching magical wings wandering without zeal reaching the top and looking down weakness I'm powerless against the will random resolution time to renew deep breath
As the first tulips start to bloom in my garden, I know it’s time to renew, to make changes, to let go of things that aren’t worth keeping and welcome the new, the possibilities, to make decisions, not always the best ones, but the ones that my body and mind are craving.
Tanka Tuesday this week is about Easter, with a flower image as inspiration. I’ve chosen a butterfly cinquain as a form for my poem, nothing better than a butterfly to remind us of rebirth, renewal, and transformation.
Tanka Tuesday – rain
spring brings rain a smile on my face renewed wings flip-flops on no clouds will destroy the joy fly over the pond
This week Tanka Tuesday asks us to write a Shadorma (3-5-3-3-7-5 syllables) using a few specific words. I’ve chosen smile, clouds, spring and wings.
