#TANKATUESDAY Weekly #POETRYCHALLENGE #262 #ThemePrompt @SyllabicPoetry @ColleenChesebro #Haiku
Hi everyone! ๐
Today, Iโve joined Colleenโs weekly TankaTuesday challenge, which asks for any syllabic form based on a theme prompt.
Ken Gierke (Rivrvlogr) from last monthโs challenge picked the theme:
TRANSITIONS
You can find Colleenโs post HERE.
Iโve chosen a set of four Haiku with a syllable count of 3-5-3 for each. Haiku are not titled.
Sun comes late
Lights lit all day long
Shifts each week
โฆ
Bulbs flower
Nights shrink from onslaught
Then comes heat
โฆ
Scorched dry earth
Lush green becomes brown
Leaves yellow
โฆ
Orange hue
Heralds shortened days
Sun comes late
I hope you enjoyed this set of four Haiku.
Have a lovely day! ๐

Fantastic! Thanks so much, Denise. I loved how that came together for me. I felt it brought the transitions and cycles into a closed circle that just seemed to fit ๐๐
That was lovely, Harmony. I love the way you did one for each season, yet they all go together.
Yay! Thanks so much, Staci ๐๐
Cleverly done, Harmony. I can wallow in each verse as I wallow in the seasons. Great job!
