It’s Tuesday again and time for Colleen Chesebro’s Tuesday Tanka. This week our prompts are Grace and Style. I have written a Tanka about Thanksgiving. Using, ‘give thanks’ for Grace and ‘as pilgrims did for’ Style.
Join me for this meal
Lets give thanks as pilgrims did
They survived hard times
They left their homes full of hope
Enjoy fruits of first harvest.
This is part of Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka.
Hi this week Colleen Chesebro has given us the two prompts Trick and Treat. The magic twist is we cannot use those actual words, no we have to use them synonymously.
I have chosen a Shadorma this week, for Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge. A sad tale of lies, deception and mistreatment.
Deception
T’was ever
Such a deception
As when thou
Promised to
Do fair and handsome by me
Thou didst mislead so.

This week Colleen has given us the prompt words Enchant and Fly. I have chosen to write a Shadorma for Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge.
The title is Bewitched
You’re bewitched
Within her magic
Held under
Her love spell
Her charm makes your spirit soar
Born on wings of joy.
It’s Tuesday again and time for Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge.
This week I have chosen to do a Nonet.
Our two words for this week are
Light & Dark
His soul was blacker than any night
Lost from the warmth of day was he.
Inocence,pure and bright she
Drawn together where they
Just like night and day
Opposite sides
Two faces
Yin and
Yan
Hello America it been a busy week, your Canadian cousins celebrated Canada Day on July 1st while you guys will be celebrating Independence Day on the 4th July.. so may I wish you all the best.
This is the first Tuesday of the month so Colleen always allows us to pick our own words to use Synonymously.
I have chosen Deny and Improve. This week I have chosen a Tanka for Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday Challenge.
Let’s come together
Welcome the poor of the world.
Liberty for all?
Arms wide, mouth gagged eyes shut
We’d change the world if we tried.
*******
This week Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday Challenge is to use the words Plan and Spend Synonymously. I have chosen a Tanka this week.
Father Love.
I intend to stay
And while away this short day
In your company
I aspire to be happy
It’s my design to pass time.
Look who’s back!
Yes at last our Fairy Queen of the synonyms is back. Safely ensconced in Arizona Colleen is ready to set us our Weekly Tuesday Tanka Challenge you can join in here.. It doesn’t have to be a Tanka though as long as it is a poem governed by syllables.
Today’s words to use synonymously are Beginning & Consume.
I have chosen to do a Nonet, one of my favourite forms of poetry.
In the beginning.
When it all started there were just two
All sparkly, wonderful and new.
They had eyes for eachother
Such joys to discover
Snake then wriggled in
Try this apple
It’s good, she
Ate, too
Late.
This week I have chosen to write a Shadorma about God and Faith. For Colleen‘s Weekly Tanka Challenge
Show me where
My life’s path should go
Guide me through
Teach me by
Kindness as your disciple
To accept your word.
Sorry I am late Colleen I have had another mad day. Finally I managed a Tanka.
Time.
Time creeps up on us
A leisurely assassin,
Unrushed to pass us
Like a steadily pasted chore
Sloth speed, caught up in the toil.
This is my entry for Colleen Chesebro‘s Tuesday Tanka Challenge.
Strangely the temperature dropped here and we had snow which I have a video here. My poem is an Etheree.
Deep Winter
Snow
Silent
Covering
All in silence
The tempest arrives
Freezing, chilling the ground
Squalls whipping up banks of
white
Blizzards persists temperatures
Dropping fast like falling mercury
Noses grow red tingling fingers and toes.
