Triple Tuesday

Today we are catching up with blogs we follow as well as doing our own prompt... here we go...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Gratituesday's Challenge this week is an ACROSTIC

The word GRATITUDE

Why I'm Grateful for My Blogging Experience.

 

Growing friendships from afar

Recognizing exactly who they are

Appreciation for their shining star

Touching some with words we write

Increasingly gaining much delight

Thankfulness you follow our site

Unabridged affection for all of you

Deeply involved in your writing too

Entangled in what our blogs can do

We missed OSP prompt yesterday, which was a rondel

OURS IS...

 

It seems once more we write of Spring

her beauty can not be contained

we marvel at the joy she brings

she bursts with life, so unrestrained

 

English ivy to arbors cling

reaching for heights, hard to obtain

and so once more we write of Spring

for beauty can not be contained

 

So for the love of her we sing

for joys of Sun and warmth again

for flowers grown and knees grass stained

we marvel at the joy she brings

and so once more we write of Spring

 

Took a few liberties with this one, hope it is still fitting of the prompt...

Join OSP and link your poem , you will be glad you did !

Now for our prompt ...

 

Tanka

A tanka is another poetry type related to the haiku. The first three lines are unrhymed. They have a syllable count of five, seven, five like the haiku. But the last two lines both have seven syllables. So the syllable count is: (5, 7, 5, 7, 7)

OURS IS...

 

My unsung hero

you inspire the words I write

with warmth in your heart

 

more than love so deeply felt

I live for the love of you

 

 

 OK everyone there we go for today !! Remember to link up with our Mr linky feature and join in with Lisa and OSP as well.

YOUR TURN
ENJOY
