Autumn’s Cease and Desist

Traci Kenworth

Dusk accumulates,
Briars, thick on the hillside
scratch and sway, deadly.
snow crumbles defiantly,
blocking driveways
cornfields in the valley,
cast shadows as the
leaves scamper, their path unclear.

    Lovely words, Traci. Remember, a Tanka poem is 5 lines, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable structure. Read more here: https://colleenchesebro.com/tanka-poetry-prompt-challenge-guidelines/how-to-write-a-tanka-poem-in-english/.

      I bookmarked the page. I think I was actually writing a Haiku and got confused but I may be off on those rules too. I’ll check that out as well.

        It’s all good. Start with Haiku first. They are easier and usually nature based. ❤️
