leaves' exquisite glow
the night quickly approaches
strength of letting go
a cue for today's fading
for hope of tomorrow's dreams
A tanka for W3 prompt – strength

Tanka Tuesday :: lightness
crisp air baths my skin
lady spring dressed in lightness
refreshes my body
at the end of a long day
the breeze brings dreams full of hope
harvest moon
the blessed harvest moon illuminating my path she brings me back home pumpkins, apple cider, gnomes all awaits for my return
tanka tuesday :: innocence
merciless talking an innocence from madness silence is the say the eternal punishment desirable forgiveness
tanka tuesday synonyms only for quiet and seek. I’m using silence and desirable for my poem.
these gorgeous white flowers called my attention yesterday, maybe a sign from nature? i looked up for their symbolism:
White flower symbolism includes purity, innocence, faith, spiritual enlightenment, and messages from angels. Uniguide.com
i’ve been walking in a rough path recently. purity and innocence can explain a lot to me right now, and maybe i’ll forgive myself.

outside my window the time stops, as a painting majestic bare trees under the golden sunshine a bunny hops without care

15/30 – it’s the little things
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

magical moment the waves coming and going freshness on my face deeply into the abyss hallucination comes true
Tanka Tuesday this week is TANKA PROSE: “We write Tanka prose from the first-person point-of-view. The prose paragraph(s) must also seek to be, if not poetic, at least something that grabs our attention. It must compete with the verse in its style, intending to be inventive and expressive all on its own.“
I took this photo during the weekend, the weather was fabulous, perfect to wander around and take photos. I thought the photo is perfect for a tanka poem. Hope you enjoy the poem and the photo.
First signs of spring
Happy Spring everyone! We are still freezing here in my city in Canada, but last week I saw the first signs of spring while visiting New York City. Those tiny purple flowers on the ground made me smile.
Tanka Tuesday this week is a theme prompt: Fire and Water, below is my poem where I’ve chosen sunshine for fire and icy for water. Hope you enjoy it!
