Autumn Premonition Tanka
Crinkled statements
green disappears leaving scarlet,
morning frost, cold moonlight.
What does the catfish carry
at muddy river bottom?

Yes
in our current heat wave
this is so refreshing
Ooh, I love it all, especially the question at the end.
spoooky…
you’ve spoiled us with your tankachains
feeling shortchanged here- with only one 🙂
I’m running out of steam! I almost didn’t post anything.
In my favor, I could have posted the multiple tanka on separate days thus fulling up days. But they worked better as a group.
time to try bangs(?)
if you do, i will…
leo ssn IS coming.. 🙂
I love how you lead us in to that lingering question–something to hold onto and wonder over.
Love this, Linda!
So what DOES the catfish carry? Inquiring minds want to know. A suitcase? An American Express card? A cane?
given the heat, morning frost, cold moonlight is perfect!
Nice refreshing dip to the bottom of the well.
A beautiful lead to possible contemplation!
I like that question at the end!
