on the baton to another
day of destined living

pre dawn shine
the big bright supermoon
through the brickwork
shadows of covid faded
to silent blanket of sky
❧✿❧
flattening curved statistics
songs for handwashing
measured to seconds
guessing the colour
of lips fashioned
behind masked safety

Kerry over at the imaginary garden gave us this photo as our weekend prompt. Since i'm already in mood Christmas i wrote this tanka
giving all she got
she sweeps the nard with her locks
across his feet
just like the little Drummer Boy
giving of his music

Note
John 12:3 - nard a biblical reference
The Little Drummer Boy- a Christmas carol

Monday WRites 109
SENTINELS
as rain sneaked in
charcoal grey of nighttime
silent sentinel Poui
drank to their full and then
they burst into bloom splendor
