COLLEEN’S 2020 WEEKLY #TANKA TUESDAY #POETRY CHALLENGE NO. 193, #POET’SCHOICE: #senryu #Photo #Meringue #Sweet #Tasty

This lovely dessert was one of the tastiest, most visually pleasing delights I have ever had the pleasure of eating!

But, it’s not for everyone… not if you are allergic to egg whites, or you don’t like meringue, or…

You love meringue but have put on a few pounds during lockdown… maybe I shouldn’t have another one…

Only joking, this was at a restaurant…

Sumptuous meringue

A tempting, strawberry high

My body shouts NO!

A strawberry crown

Crumbling meringue face

Dotted with delight!

Somehow I prefer the last one… oh dear I do have a problem. Even my poetry is saying eat the dessert… Such a sweet tooth!

Which poem do you prefer? Let me guess…

I love poetry!

I write poetry in all of my books (excluding some of the anthologies.) You’ll find poetry in Mr. Sagittarius, Poetry and Prose, in The Curse of Time Book 1 Bloodstone, (short form poetry at the beginning of each chapter,) and there is also poetry in the anthology/compilation This Is Lockdown.

Check out my books on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/M-J-Mallon/e/B074CGNK4L/

Thank you for stopping by and remember to leave a comment! xxx

  1. Your senryu poem at the top is quite humorous. Remember, haiku are written about nature. If you’re writing about “human nature” how the human responds to the world around them, it’s a senryu. A tanka has five lines: 5/7/5/7/7. Both of these delightfully fattening masterpieces are senryu. Well done, Sis. <3
