For this week’s Colleen Chesebro’s #Tanka Tuesday Challenge 21 – synonyms only I was honoured to select the two prompt words..Eager and Hope..
I have written a shadorma – using the words Impatient and Promise..
Mother Nature
Mother Earth
throws off the mantle
of winter
Impatient
to share her sacred promise
of spring and rebirth.

Lets this beautiful shadorma (Yes, at least i try to memorise the names of the metrics. ;-)) also be my wish, Sally! Actually our dayover temperatures are around four degrees over null. Not unusual for this time of year. It’s actually pretty warm with us. But I finally want summer! 😉 Spring may be quiet, due to the pandemic. Michael

Thank you Michael.. and that is cool.. we have had freezing temperatures this week again because of the northern air flow but hoping for some garden time in the next week… it is very quiet out on the roads here and unlikely to get busy for at least another month…hugsxxx
