#TankaTuesday – 24 Seasons Syllabic #Poetry Challenge

Pixaby image

Tranquil dawn beckons
bird songs enhance the magic
mellifluous mirth!
spring trots majestically
a delusional design. 

***

Mother Earth’s attire
alters within a few days
just like blissful life
that transforms within moments
hazy moon is in mourning.

***

commiserating, 
sharing my gloom with the world,
sending soothing vibes
creating a mist of love 
besotted birds enter clouds.

Thanks to Colleen for her 24 Seasons Poetry Challenge, which inspires syllabic poetry. I’ve highlighted the Kigo phrases.

Thank you dear readers for your love and support.

  1. This is beautiful, Balroop, and I sense a lifting of spirit. I especially love the first verse and the image of
    “bird songs enhance the magic
    mellifluous mirth!”

    You always bring images so vividly to life!

  2. Balroop, a lovely lightness and sense of play at times in these wonderful poems, I’m smiling at the ‘mellifluous mirth’ of the bird song! There seems to be an enveloping caress of nature, trying to become a balm for the deep grief. The dichotomy of life is ever close.

  3. Balroop, your capture of this spring through bird song and the hazy moon reminds me to appreciate the world around me. That second tanka really grabs me in the heart. Hugs and love, to you. 🌸
