Would you dance with the fairies? I know, I would! ❤

“Fairy rings are a naturally occurring ring of mushrooms normally found in forested areas and grasslands. Even though the fairy rings form due to natural causes, they are surrounded by folklore…”

I would love to dance with fairies again, Colleen.
BTW, just added a new page to my blog, sorta. I call it “Queen Lear’s Silly Sentiments”, and it will be for my silly side, with the first offering being a silly poem. Venturing out a little bit, but it’s time. Hugs. ((())) ❤

        It would be easier if I could remain on my feet, chair or something more comfortable than the floor! However, this also shall be turned into a silly story, poem, or even a song!
        Thanks for your encouragement, Colleen. Now to get my silly thinking cap on!

The wee beings of folklore are so inspiring and comforting. How lovely it would be, to find they are real!

  I’ve seen a swamp fairy and a meadow fairy. I believe. They are much more benevolent and nature based than the myths depict them as. I find them comforting. Although, they are here to remind us that we need to protect our earth. ❤

Colleen M. Chesebro—Prose Metrist

Word Craft: Prose & Poetry, created by Colleen M. Chesebro, is an uplifting community where poets can learn the basics of writing Japanese and American syllabic poetry by sharing their own poetic inspiration within a weekly poetry challenge called Tanka Tuesday.

Participants submit their poetry written in one of the twelve forms: haiku, senryu, haiga, tanka, gogyohka, haibun, tanka prose, renga, cinquain, and its variations, Etheree, nonet, shadorma, Badger hexastich, Abhanga & diatelle. Poets receive positive feedback from peers who inspire each other to stretch their creativity.

Participants and readers return each week to celebrate the weekly poetry stars and to buy books from the Tanka Tuesday Book Store.

“The Woman in Red,” tanka, senryu, Abhanga

This week’s #TankaTuesday poetry challenge is an Ekphrastic challenge. Read the post HERE. It thrilled me when my friend, Rebecca Budd, introduced me to her blog called Chasing Art. I’ve always been interested in art, and the different mediums an artist uses to interpret their creativity. She shared John Waterhouse’s works, and my mind lit […]

“Snow Blind,” senryu vs haiku

luminous sunshine snow reflections sparkle… I’m blind as a bat © Colleen M. Chesebro While haiku are often stark and disciplined, senryu poems are often witty or funny. The senryu is a three-line (5-7-5, 3-5-3, 2-3-2 syllable) Japanese poetic form that focuses on human nature, including an ironic or darkly comedic edge. Some are witty, […]

Haiku

I love haiku. They are one of my favorite syllabic forms to write. This haiku is written for #TankaTuesday and the specific form challenge. Haiku are written about nature, the seasons, a beautiful moment in nature, an emotional experience while in nature, or change. In haiku, your subject will always be about nature. The use […]
