Tanka Tuesday

Your syllabic poetry writing invitation is to choose a kigo word or phrase from the seasonal kigo list on the post, or you can choose from the winter category (world kigo database) on the kigo word list links below. Share your kigo word on your post. If you write freestyle poetry, you must share a syllabic form, that includes a kigo word. You must use one kigo word or phrase in your syllabic poem.

first frosty snowfall

it’s the twilight of the year

humbled leaves scatter

icy pools shine in cold rain

winter starts its festival
