Tanka Poetry Challenge

Colleen’s Weekly Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge at Word Craft

Published on by

Today I’m back, hopping on to another of Colleen’s weekly poetry challenge. Choose which style of syllabic poetry we like, using SYNONYMS only for the words: FAMILY and PEACE. I’ve written a Haibun with a Haiku.

 

WELCOME TO TANKA TUESDAY!

 

 

Are you ready to choose some syllables to use in your syllabic poetry this week? Ruth, from RuthKlein’s Scribbles, selected your two words:

 

Family & Peace

On the Monday recap, I’ll select someone to choose next month’s theme. For this poetry challenge, you can write your poem in the forms defined on the cheatsheet OR from the forms found on Poetscollective.org. You can read the full post at Colleen’s blog.

teardrop

 

Oxymoron

 

In my world, these two words are a major confliction; family and peace in the same story. A tricky combination.

 

People misconstrue

Not all blood relationships

Provide harmony
