This week is the beginning of the second year of Colleen Chesebro’s of The Fairy Whispers Poetry Challenge.
This week’s prompts are Mist and Shape.
Haiku Autumn
Autumn brings cold mist
Melding colour and all shape
Soft and all mellow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mist and Shape : Tanka
I watched in silence
Four shapes approached through mist
Clad black on horseback
Horsemen of Apocalypse
I was rooted to the spot.
If we were having coffee , every Sunday
Salty like hot dogs (and tears). Sweet like marmalade (and life).
Rants, humor, sarcasm, and a haiku-like substance? It's hard to know what's going to come out of our minds next.

Thank you Judy, the Haiku was inspired by the photo but Tanka is much more to do with the state of the world today 💜💜💜
