This week for Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge, she urges us to: ‘Choose your own syllabic form andĀ colour to feature in your syllabic poem. If the form is from the #TankaTuesday Cheat sheet, let us know so we know where to look for directions. If itās a new form, share how to write it and where you found the instructions. Think about the different ways you can use color in a poem.
P.S.Ā š Taste the Rainbow refers to colors. You do not have to write about a rainbow in your poem. Add a color to your poem. š“
Today I wrote my poem purely as an expression of how I feel . It’s not pretty but it’s honest. It has a Tanka syllable count but not sure if it is a true Tanka. …It’s a woebegone verse

surrounded by blue
i see only a dark grey
my insides rotting
in my mouth a sickly taste
of green bile, invades my life.
