I see butterflies
On the wing, in the meadow
Fluttering, landing
On the flowers, loving sun
Beautiful butterflies, smile!

Tankas for the Day
This morning I was pondering tanka - a 5-7-5-7-7 form similar to haiku (5-7-5, about seaons) or senyru (not about seasons, also 5-7-5). Those are syllable counts, by the way.
This is what came of this ponderance after the work day was over...
Based on getting a job interview for what looks to be a very interesting job:
Sitting outside in the sun writing, listening to the sounds of the neighborhood:
Thinking about various things, past and present in life:

Scaling piano
notes drifting from neighbor's house
now playing a song
not one to sing along to
at least no discordant notes

Wanting harmony
understanding, peace and love
having distance,
communication issues
relationships are worth it?
