Tanka


 an ice blue day
darning socks
by a sunny window
generations before me
guiding my hand
Tanka Society of America, 2020

You might not believe this, but I was darning my favorite socks yesterday.

I love the photo you chose for the poem.

light plays
on a field of snow
a crow's shadow

Thanks, Sandy for the great haiku. Snow is good for two activities: taking pictures and writing about it. Have only a few snow photos for this winter. It's just cold here, sunny and cold.
