Badger Hexastich: Sweet and Sour Memories #TankaTuesday for Fourth Week
Remember how much you wanted to leave your small town when you were young? And when you finally did, what happened? Those memories, right?!

Written for Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge for which I chose A Classic Etheree AND A Reverse Etheree: One subject, unrhymed and with a title. Hope you enjoy it.
My house chore today, put me in a nostalgic mood. So I reasoned, why not try to give this post a little pizzazz? And so I imitated the inimitable Dr. Seuss. And already I'm feeling better. Hope this one makes you smile.

This post is inspired by the "It's not easy being green: other things to consider" quotes by Jim Henson. With a Senryu and Pixabay photos, I hope to add value to you today. And I hope these words reach our COP26 leaders. Amen.
I love the theme prompt of kindness this week. And I cannot help noticing that like the 'ever-ready' and 'intel-lect inside' (puns), we come with 'kindness inside!' Please enjoy the write up and short syllabic poetry I wrote for you today.
Spring has Sprung and spring poetry is blooming everywhere. Especially at Tanka Tuesday's Word Craft. Please take a look. Also, I wish to post my book review here for the Art of Crafting Syllabic Poetry.
Ready to smile today? Good, because pink is the word of the day. Enjoy a pinktastic day and a fantabulous week.
My first attempt at Gogyohka Poetry. We're talking Lullabies today. This lullaby is composed of star and moon dust. For you. Good night. Sweet dreams.
Life is Expedition where we decide the cadence and try to match it to the frequency of how we want things to go. We do this by monitoring our path. Internally, mainly, as that's the only path we can control. May we all be ready to cross bridges without judging and controlling. Happy Expeditions to all.
Everything I do in the garden is fun. I smile a lot then. But then the next day... but then I remember, that the flowers are the custodians of the smiles I cannot make shine in the morning, and that I can collect those smiles from the garden where I left them. I wish you smiles. I wish you miracles.
