Tanka Tuesday :: Petal

the words come and go
where can I find the anchor?
unbounded moments
the softness of a petal
thoughts and pen falling apart

Tanka Tuesday – poet’s choice

Bright April

Last day of April and Bright square challenge. It was wonderful to slow down and focus on brightness. There are many bright moments in our day and it’s up to us to find and appreciate them.

Thanks Becky for the ‘bright’ reminder. And thank you that followed my tiny bright moments during this month.

Bright pink

My city is dressed in blossoms! Lots of pink and white trees, a few yellow magnolias. It’s very pleasant to have a stroll around here.

Bright Obsession

Tulips. They are my obsession right now. I can’t walk by them without stopping and taking a photo. This photo was taken yesterday in a nearby park.

Bright day

My tulips

Welcoming the outdoors. Here and now. Flowers. Birds singing. Sunshine. Running shoes. Early mornings and fresh air.

Blossom by blossom the spring begins.

Bright water

A river nearby

Stop, breathe, listen. Being in the moment and paying attention to the details. Walking by the river yesterday, I stopped and looked down, yes, I saw the fish swimming upstream, many of them, busy to reach something, someplace.
