Fool Card - #TankaTuesday #tanka #poem #Tarotcards #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro


Hello, beautiful readers! For this week's #TankaTuesday, Colleen Chesebro invites us to write a poem using the Fool Tarot card as our theme. In Tarot decks, the Fool card is the first card in the deck and symbolizes new beginnings, the expansion of one's horizons, and the willingness to take risks guided by intuition. He is also depicted as the symbol of innocence, one who takes a journey filled with optimism and freedom from the usual constraints in life. He inspires courage and does not worry about the future. I decided to write a tanka poem for this theme. 


steady and patient
Universe plays the long game
have faith in future
look past current obstacles
see new possibilities

  6. Something always opens up, just not always what we we think, or when, but we have to be ready to seize them when they appear ... love the positive thinking ..💞
