All Together – Tanka

Leaves dance with sun’s rays

to life’s joyous melodies

Hands held, tapping toes –

Let’s boogie and celebrate

with warmth in our hearts and souls

  3. I liked this a lot I must say! Could you maybe fill me in on this “tanka” business? It’s inspiring to see how you tackle all of the different elements of fictional writing.

    1. Alex, your comments truly make my day, thank you! I don’t know much about Tankas, but the basics are the 5-7-5-7-7 syllable format…they’re a continuation of a 5-7-5 haiku…I’m not sure of any ground rules for topics to write about, but I write from the heart about anything! If you have time, check out http://caddoveil.com. She’s one of my favorite blogging sisters and writes wonderful Tanka..thanks for your encouraging complement again! 🙂
