“Thankfulness is the beginning of gratitude. Gratitude is the completion of thankfulness. Thankfulness may consist merely of words. Gratitude is shown in acts.”
Henri Frederic Amiel

Colleen’s 2019 Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 145 #PhotoPrompt
This week we are using a photo chosen by last month’s “Photo-Prompt” Poet of the Week Jane Dougherty.
I have gone for the obvious Climate change. I have written an Etheree for Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge.
**********
The Ending.
They
All said
It would not
Happen, yet all
The waters are rising
All the birds are leaving home
Temperatures are higher now.
Than they have ever been, water boils.
Gia, head bent succumbs to climate change.
*********
Jane Dougherty and Colleen came up with a fun idea. Whoever is chosen as the Photo-Prompt Poet of the Week will choose the photo for the next month’s photo-prompt challenge.
You can use Pixabay or any other creative commons photos – just give attribution to the photographer. If you would like to use your own photos, just let me know that. Please email the photo NLT 3 days before the next month’s photo challenge.
