A #TankaTuesday Tanka

Posted bywordsandcoffee1Posted inPoetry, WritingTags:, , , , ,

above the cloud line

capturing wonders through frame

earth’s beauty remains

within our perceptive gaze

and beyond all that we are

This poem is for the Colleen’s weekly #TankaTuesday Challenge, brought to us this week from David at Skeptic’s Kaddish. Here was today’s prompt: “This is a photo of David’s father. Please be aware that he is no longer with us. David dedicated his blog to his father’s memory. You can read more about his journey HERE. With that being said, take a deep look at this photo. Don’t describe what we all can see. Look into the camera lens… what do YOU see? What is revealed to you? Now, write your syllabic poem.”
