a mid morning breeze
leaves in a carefree tumble
flutter, dip, and swoon
with lilt of a butterfly,
grace bestowed, free to the end

below the surface
hidden in these reflections,
lives of compromise
where ocean water meets fresh –
overcoming, adapting

a restful place
this message in a bottle
awaiting its fate
next, a not so quiet end
imagination sets pace

For Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday where the picture is the prompt
glacier ice tumbles
in a major undoing –
onlookers cheer, gulls cry

between two sparrows
a tumbling-mid-air-to-ground
brawl, a ruckus ploy
depleted, one pulls way back-
entranced, horn rouse me from wonder

For Tanka Tuesday over at Colleen’s the prompt words are synonyms for Plan & Spend. I used Ploy & Deplete. See other entries here.
norms devoured, I’m
riveted by the mayhem –
tales taller than most
delivered with conviction,
bringing darkness a new birth

This winter has not been especially kind to my spirits. A heavy heart loomed, most times out of nowhere. It was hard to get ahold of, or figure out why. This fueled my quest for spring which took its time getting here.Today, I spotted my first cherry blossoms! A lone tree, stands among others that still stood tall, gawky and bare. This lifted my spirits.
first of the season
a cherry blossom sighting
as spring takes a hold
the blossoms ripple and sway
in spring breeze, lightens my mood
