It’s nice to welcome Colleen back after her break finding and settling in to her new home in Arizona. I’ve missed writing poetry but I’ve been super busy getting feedback back from my early readers and beta readers on my WIP: The Curse of Time Book 2 Golden Healer.
The synonyms I’ve chosen for beginning are dawn, and for consume – exhausted.
The tulips are from my recent trip to Montreal, Canada – Botanic Gardens. I had a wonderful time there on holiday with my two daughters.
Fields of Bright Tulips
With every dawn
Inspiration finds a way
To bloom in choice words
Until exhausted I dream
Fields of bright tulips
Hope you enjoyed my tanka poem.
Bye for now, happy creating!

Marje, a delightful tanka and after these beautiful flowers I think I too would dream of ‘Fields of bright tulips’. Ahh… you and your daughters looks beautiful and full of joy during your trip. Great photos! 😀

Wow! This is splendid, Marje. I love the photos too. Did you know Debby Gies lives in Tronto? I have no idea how far apart the two cities are but it would have been great for you two to meet. <3
Hi Colleen
Yes I did think about getting in touch but we had so few days and in the end we didn’t get round to going to Toronto which was such a shame. One day! Loved our trip and hope to revisit Canada and perhaps Toronto one day. <3
Me too. That would have been a blast!! <3
Congratulations on being selected poet of the week. Those tulips are beautiful, and it looks like a wonderful outing with your daughters!
Thank you so much. It was a beautiful place to visit with my daughters. 🙂
