#TankaTuesday #Ekphrastic #Poetry Challenge No. 312

WELCOME TO TANKA TUESDAY

SPRING is in the air! This #TankaTuesday challenge explores Ekphrastic poetry, inspired by works of art.

💐 This week, using the painting as your inspiration, please write either a syllabic poetry form or a freestyle poem, including a syllabic form (both on the same post). 💐

FridayPainting: Claude Monet “The Artist’s Garden at Giverny” See the post over at Rebecca Budd’s blog Chasing Art

I have chosen to try a Diatelle this week is syllabic beat is 1/2/3/4/6/8/10/12/10/8/6/4/3/2/1.

Peace

Light
Colours
My dream place
Where my mind’s ease
Lifts me, to gentle space
Perfume heady take my mind home
To a kinder time, happy and carefree
Pastel soft my mood lightens as memories flood
Murmurs in my ears, flowers in my hands
Time slips by like hourglass sand
I meld into this place
Remove the years
Grateful, tired
I find
Peace

#TankaTuesday Weekly #Poetry Challenge No. 247, #SynonymsOnly

WELCOME TO TANKA TUESDAY!

Are you ready to choose some syllables to use in your poetry? Willow Willers  (pist’ that’s me 😃) from last month’s challenge chose the two words for this month:

Twilight & Hue.

a dusky silver
somewhere between night and day
Shades of evening sway.

Coffee for two

Coffee for two, cappuccino and an Americano.
No we will sit here we don’t want it to go.
We are on holiday so we can take it slow.
Such a lovely little town people settled in their ways.

This is the place they love and where they will be until they end their days.
Now we have finished and we move on
This little town will carry on as it has always been now we are gone.
