I have chosen to continue my theme from Mondays Haiku Challenge. I actually did a Tanka.
The tree is old, it’s dying now
A cancer has eaten it’s soul.
T’is hollow now where once t’was whole.
Rotting fruit withers on the bough.
Wasps, invited to death’s feast, row
Over sweet rotting apple core
They feast and gorge demanding more.
This is the circle of all strife
Just one pip needs to seed for life
Then appple trees will grow once more.

This week Colleen has selected our words for our prompt. They are Sanctuary & Follow we are to use them synonymously and count our syllables to match our chosen form of poetry. I have chosen a 5/7/5 and a 3/5/3 haiku to express my reaction to our prompt.
seeking a safe place
treading deep in God’s footprints
hoping to find grace.
safe harbour
is my true pursuit
wrapped in peace.
