Autumn walk
Sound of footsteps
Crunching leaves
Echo loudly
In the stillness

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
