The mission this week on TankaTuesday.com is to use 3 kigo words and write three Abhanga, with the syllable count 6-6-6-4.
Sunrise walks with my dog
Are from last week, or the
Weeks ahead. Now I sleep
in: Vacation!
Snow swirls, frost whirls, fire smoke
Twists in winter spirals.
A phrase that sounds like the
Grey days and thoughts.
Picture friends enjoying
Boxing Day in countries
That use "ou" for their
Labour, favours.
Happy New Year for those who celebrate 🙂

Happy New Year, Mark. The abhanga is a fun form. In the link to the 24 Forms, you will see that L2 and L3 rhyme. It’s really a cool twist! 🥳

Mark,
Your poem beautifully captures the cozy essence of winter, with vivid imagery and a touch of nostalgia. The contrast between the serene sunrise walks and the wintery scenes paints a delightful picture.
