Resilience - #TankaTuesday #haiku #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity @YvetteMCalleiro


Hello, beautiful readers! I cannot believe how busy this week has been for me, and the next several weeks will be just as busy, so I don't know how much I'll be posting this month. Since I was the host of this week's #TankaTuesday, I had to make time to participate. Lol! This week, I encouraged everyone to write about resilience. My poem is short because it's Monday and the challenge ends today, but at least, I was able to write something.

forest fires run wild
time will replenish foliage
nature's survivors

  1. We are just preparing to enter into our wildfire season. Fortunately we had record snowfall this year, so I am hoping it won't be as bad as it usually is. Wonderful verse, Yvette.

  4. I just read that the Everglades are on fire. Florida has a drought. It's a shame. I hope the wetlands find a way to come back.

    1. I saw that, too, Colleen! It always makes me so sad for the animals that call that habitat their home. Thanks for visiting! :-)

  5. I know there are too many forrest fires. There seems to be a recurring one - especially when it is dry in NJ, where our neice lives. While far from her - on can often see the smoke in the sky.

    I have seen in my travels areas where there was a fire and the area is slowly recovering. So that is good.

    Stay well and enjoy the end of the school year :)
