Sweet and Low – Haiku – A Poem by Anita Bacha

freezing winter night 

when the whole world is asleep –

snow falls sweet and low

Happy end of the week, my friends

Footsteps – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Autumn walk

Sound of footsteps 

Crunching leaves 

Echo loudly 

In the stillness 

Anita Bacha

Footsteps is the prompt of #TankaSocietyofAmerica for this week #TankaThursday and #TankaPoem

I was walking to the bakery to buy bread for breakfast and was deep in thought.Suddenly I heard the sound of my footsteps crunching fallen brown leaves 🍂. Simultaneously my Apple in my jacket pocket notified me of the above prompt.

I immediately jot down the above short piece on my iPhone and posted it as quick as lightning ⚡️

My feelings when I did so were ‘ I was living the peace and quietness of an Autumn walk away from the maddening crowds interrupted unduly by my boots, fallen leaves and my iPhone.

Thank you for reading,my friends.

Happy start of the week

Halo of the Sun – Tanka – A Poem by Anita Bacha

Awaken at dawn 
Sublime halo of the sun 
Meets her sleepy eyes
Moment of silent wonder 
A pale moon on a pink cloud

Legacy of Love – A Tanka Poem by Anita Bacha


Your book of poetry 

Dried roses in the old chest

Legacy of love 

Gone too early beloved 

Yellow pages soaked with tears

November Showers – A Tanka Poem by Anita Bacha

November showers 

a steaming mug of milk tea 

breakfast  at the pub

friendly when it’s cold outside 

there’s warmth and closeness inside

outside my window 

leaves are drifting in the rain 

sad, with no repair

Layers of Black Clouds – A Tanka Poem by Anita Bacha

layers of black clouds 

rain presses down in needles 

a distant fogbow

dawn’s white waves break on the shore

magic spell of a new day
