The arid landscape was flat and had smaller grains of sand for easier navigation. The ants in lockstep trailed after the leader of the colony, it’s expatiate warning heeded by all. The dune buggy races were beginning soon and all needed to find cover ASAP!

“When worker ants come to know about some kind of food or other resource, they leave a mark with the help of Fermons Liquidi to come back. In this way, the worker ants leave a similar mark for the ants that follow them. Every ant leaves these traces of the ants coming after it. This helps them to walk together.”

It’s never completely dark in my bedroom but even on a snowy day like this, I look forward to the sun streaming in with its morning rise.

white light prevails less

orange and yellow now rule

colored brief beauty

Finding fun in your day keeps you in the light.

I rub my morning eyes
Tired from a fitful sleep
Dreaming once again of you
Seeing your chunky tanned hands
Soft to the touch
The wide gold wedding band still present.
Many years, it still remains our symbol—
A lasting commitment of early love.

Everything is harried

Everything amuss

My fault that I lost it

Under my arm of trust.

Moving also is to blame

I know it’s somewhere safe

But having lost it

Causes chaos just the same.

Trudging tiredly along with a single parent, cold, damp and hungry, the child will remember these times and thank his mother for his survival.

Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Survival – March 8, 2022

As the temperature rises to 28 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s difficult to imagine anyone sizzling in the sand on a beach somewhere. I tried finding the warmest place on planet earth with varying results…certainly never here😀

https://cyranny.com/2022/03/08/sizzle-word-of-the-day-challenge/?like_actor=102337606&like_hmac=015c941f86a2c70bf88d85dafad00e3f&postid=61698&like=1&source=sub_email

Here, then, are the specifics for this week:

1. Joanne Fisher won the crown last time round; she’s suggested a Theme of what one might find in one’s pocket. The form? A tanka.
   Tanka poems are not difficult. The master, of course, is Colleen Chesebro, mother of Tanka Tuesday. Like haiku, there are syllables involved. The pattern for a tanka is 5-7-5-7-7. “Tanka consist of 5 lines written in the first-person point of view from the perspective of the poet” (more information, below).
2. The Length is five lines.
3. A tanka does not rhyme.
4. Ah; just make it terrible!Cause Gollum to regret he ever asked what was in there -even for the chance of some nice, juicy poet-meat.
5. Rating: PG or cleaner. I don’t know what you keep in your pockets, but I’m betting it’s no edgier than lint or a cell phone these days.

REVENGE

I know it’s not supposed to rhyme, therefore a terrible tanka☺️
