Gray tones, the closet is loaded
no feelings and expression in there
only a uniform for blending and never being seeing
between red, green, yellow, and pink
the gray scarf shall be chosen
blending, unseeing
red shoes, heels and lust the hidden shine of the past it will be revealed
The gray scarf is the Theme Prompt for Tanka Tuesday this week.
come all together together we are stronger strong as our pure faith the enemy is coming coming to break out our peace

Tanka Tuesday – theme prompt “The Nature of Lightning” – I’m sharing a Butterfly Cinquain about my process of creating a draft, putting ideas together, scribbling, and words floating until they reach the paper, the ground, and an explosion. Hope you enjoy it!

Early morning jogging. The silence and emptiness of the streets, the contrast between the softness in the air and the rough touch of my sneakers on the ground. Balance, focusing on what is ahead and at the same time feeling the present moment.
the morning bareness
opens the heart to the soul
whispers of promise
stop. breathe. listen the sacred
each step counts, self-discover
Tanka Tuesday this week is tanka prose consisting of a preface and a tanka poem.
the scent of Earth after the rain the moment of possibility opening up to tomorrow grounding and expectating each sign is a wish coming true
Wishing a peaceful Sunday to you!
inner to my heart
memories flash in my mind
craving the beyond
luxury in my garden
the love and feeling
take my soul far far away
opening the path
the closeness and abundance
red velvet is the colour
Tanka Tuesday is a taste of the rainbow: to choose a colour and write a syllabic poem. The colour I’ve chosen is red velvet from my precious rose. Choka is a form that consists of 9 lines with 5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-7 syllables. The rose bush in the photo is very precious to me, hope you can feel it through the poem.
Wandering in my garden this morning I spotted this dragonfly. I smiled! I know dragonflies and butterflies mean transformation, but only to confirm I did a quick google search and I found:
“A dragonfly symbol represents change and transformation. It is a reminder for you to shed more light and joy in your life. It tells you not to remain in the dark or the shadows.” https://worldbirds.com/dragonfly-symbolism/
Isn’t it wonderful? It goes well with my thoughts yesterday about being more in the shadow than in the light.
Tanka Tuesday this week is Share your day, I wrote the Haiku below about a tiny part of my day.
messages and signs
from beyond the facts and truth
a garden of joy
Hope the photo and the poem inspire you today!
