Hello, beautiful readers! For this week's #TankaTuesday challenge, Willow invites us to write a taiga, which is a haiga, but instead of writing a haiku, we write a tanka. Taiga poems are embedded on black-and-white images. I chose to use a photo I took while on my cruise this summer. I absolutely love sitting on the balcony and reading, so I focused on that moment.

vacation at sea
balcony breeze soothes my soul
invites slower pace
summer sun creates diamonds
on rolling waves as I read
Would you like to create your own taiga? Join us here.
I really love your poem...it's so relaxing and so is your photo 💜💜
