(Tanka) Booooo

A 'Man United'

'sub' comes on and the 'Spurs' fans

'booooo' him because he's 

a former 'Chelsea' player...

This crowd really know their stuff!

(Tanka) Reflection

I stoop to pick up

a dropped coin on the shiny 

floor beneath me...

but my reflection gets there

first and snatches it from me.

(Tanka) Soldier

Wishing a soldier

well and to keep his head down

and to remain safe

is a bit optimistic 

given what his work entails 

(Haiku Tanka)

If this haiku is

written in the middle of 

a forest and there's...

no-one is there to read it

does that make it a tanka?

(Tanka)

The weather man warned
us today of patchy fog
and mist. I said "a
perfect day to write poems
and to take some photographs!"
