In the storm, two leavesTossed around MercilesslyAfraid of chaosLonely, hurt and uncertainBlown away to the nowhere Then in a momentIn a miraculous actThey lock togetherSwirling and dancing as onestill, together, forever In the eye of stormSwirling melodiouslyThe storm meant no threatEverything stood still and watchedOnly Song they heard, not roar

Language of the Sky
Sky speaks to us allPaints the clouds in many huesBlue, orange, crimsonIt says it’s a new dawnOnly if we could listen What does it say to you?
They will be me soon
They lie on the panMelting flavours in the brothStill fresh and sizzlingblending tastes, create a dishOnce eaten, they will be me
The bright side always
Looking at bright sideMatching radiant coloursIt follows the sun #tankatuesdays
A box full of memories
Earth ends it’s round tripAt the place where it startedIt marks the BirthdayAnother year is addedwith box full of memories Some happy some sadWhat one saw, did, felt and thoughtEach one shaped me wellthe memories I gatherIs all that I am made of I am me
My favourite Candy
What would be sweetestI ask my tongue and my heartNot taste on the tongueThe one that sweetens the heartI am sure candy of heart #tanka
The upside down
The longest Day #tanka
Each minute countedwait seem to stretch foreverIt’s been the longestbreath seems to be laboured nowI wonder which will be last #TankaTuesday

The Sky turns crimsonMirroring hues of my mindThe eyes are red tooDark clouds are laden with tearsRaindrops will pour out tonight Thanks to Colleen’s weekly TankaTuesday challenge I feel the sky takes the colour of your mind. The weather is just an expression of your inner climate What do you think?
