Weathered Wanderer - #tanka #WDYS #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro


Hello, beautiful readers! For this week's What Do You See? prompt, Sadje provided us with two photos to inspire our writing. I chose the photo below and wrote a tanka to go along with it.

weathered wanderer
contemplations pass like clouds
days turn to seasons
cute companion at his feet
lonely but never alone
