Happy 36th Anniversary #Tanka Prose, #NaPoWritMo

Ron & Colleen – Ft. Walton Beach, Florida, April 16, 1985

Love is not as straightforward as candlelight and roses… we forged our love from the hard times and the good times. It’s the day-to-day living, the time given to each other, and the times spent with open arms and a giving heart. Love and friendship are the special gifts we share.

"Ron & Colleen"

on this day, April 16th,
now forever remembered
a precious moment 
when our lives became defined
by our love for each other

An avid reader, Colleen M. Chesebro rekindled her love of writing poetry after years spent working in the accounting industry. These days, she loves crafting syllabic poetry, flash fiction, and creative fiction and nonfiction. In addition to poetry books, Chesebro’s publishing career includes participation in various anthologies featuring short stories, flash fiction, and poetry. She’s an avid supporter of her writing community on Word Craft Poetry.com by organizing and sponsoring a weekly syllabic poetry challenge, called #TankaTuesday, where participants experiment with traditional and current forms of Japanese and American syllabic poetry. Chesebro is an assistant editor of The Congress of the Rough Writers Flash Fiction Anthology & Gitty Up Press, a micro-press founded by Charli Mills and Carrot Ranch. In January 2022, Colleen founded Unicorn Cats Publishing Services to assist poets and authors in creating eBooks and print books for publication. In addition, she creates affordable book covers for Kindle and print books. Chesebro lives in the house of her dreams in mid-Michigan surrounded by the Great Lakes with her husband and two (unicorn) cats, Chloe & Sophie.
