Hello, beautiful readers! The school year is starting to wrap up and my home life is chaotic with the reno, so I don't have as much time on my hands as I usually do (which is already very little...lol). Today, I'm combining two prompts. The first one comes from #TankaTuesday. Willow invites us to write a seox, which is a poem with six lines and a 3-7-6-5-4-3 syllabic pattern. The second prompt is from Melissa's Fandango Flash Fiction Challenge. She provides us with the image below and asks us to let it inspire us.
influence on child's journey
nature versus nurture
both play vital role
life's greatest gift
or burden

DeleteYes, we can burden or gift anyone on their journey. Your poem is a reminder of the awesome responsibility of being a parent or an educator.

DeleteSometimes parenting can feel like a burden, but the love we share with our children makes it all worth it.🥰
ReplyDeleteI have always seen my son as a blessing. He is my miracle. Thanks for visiting, Melissa! :-)
DeleteIt's so true, none of us exist in isolation. Both children and parents influence each other.
ReplyDeleteYes, they do. Thanks for stopping by, Kerfe! :-)
DeleteI think we feel the burden more when we're kids, but at my stage in life, family is gift. Great poem, Yvette.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gwen! I appreciate you visiting. :-)
