day 11… NaPoWriMo… todays prompt is called a tanka. It has similarity to the haiku with two added lines of 7 syllables.
5-7-5-7-7. I have yet to write a tanka, which is surprising considering I write and love Haiku. Today it the first day of the rest of my tanka life. ; )
You are kidding me
Still held to yesterday’s fault
worn down mis-taken
find the over it right now
show me your belly giggle
Perish yesterday
let it grumble in the gone
seed a new day green
quiver on the edge of now
lighten up your dark corners
That hat makes me laugh
It’s time you danced out the box
Give the grey gloom gone
roll your rainbow down the street
bare your naked smile
