Silver’s Weekly #Tanka #Poetry Prompt Challenge #1 Harvest & Moon
Okay, Silver. I’ll try one on, just to see how it fits.
5/7/5/7/7 syllables in 5 lines.
Deep breath
Here goes:
Dark footsteps echo,
guided by a harvest moon
down a lonely path.
Death grips life’s delicate arm,
his breath whispers, “You are mine.”
.
An awesome poem!!
