Simple enchantment To lay words of gratitude Morning ritual A tiny precious moment Unfolding a new chapter
The words for Tanka Tuesday this week are Blessed and Hex, synonyms only! I’ve chosen Precious and Enchantment. Hope you enjoy the Tanka!
A hug is needed The enchantment has began My eyes will find yours The full moon is the witness Profound love is eternal
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.
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.
This week Colleen’s Poetry challenge is Poet’s choice.
You know how much I love photography, it’s a form of expression for me. I try to show my feeling through my clicks. The same in relation to writing poems. I love it when I can put both together: photography and poems.
I took this photo few weeks ago. Hubby and I were strolling by a lake nearby and we saw this gorgeous swan in another side of the lake, they never came close before, so we didn’t expect when he/she started to swim towards us. It was a lovely surprise! We were so happy, like kids when receiving a new toy. We took photos and recorded this gorgeous bird. We really enjoyed that moment.
Hope you like the photo and the poem.
The ragged surface Scarcely shinning upriver Under the moonlight An enheartening secret For all her eternity
The words for this week are Comfort and Worn, synonyms only! I’ve chosen Enheartening and Ragged, and of course the full moon had to be part of the poem! Have you seen how gorgeous the full moon is shinning this month?
A photo is the prompt for Colleen’s poetry challenge this week.
The dawn flicks to life Enchanted and radiant A divine delight She waits in expectation The night belongs to the past
Beyond the story
A symphony of feelings
Seduced by the ink
Between words and paragraphs
The passion is essential
Form: Tanka
We always follow
the strongest and the fittest
but only within
our darkest secrets guide us
in the silence of our path
A photo prompt! Love it! Thanks Colleen for including it as one of the weekly prompts for your poetry challenge. This week prompt is this charming photo.
Here is my take!
Wishes and passion
Delivering my message
A piece of paper
To a faraway harbour
To a faraway moment
