Sets the Tone

Waking to a blue sky

Streaked with clouds, fluffy white

Such a terrific sight

Great starting point

Yay For Today

A day of grey can shine

When something great happens

Better than one imagines

Causing giggles

Out Loud That Is

Hey, I just peed outside

Bragged the six-year-old boy

His voice so filled with joy

No one dared laugh

May you one day know how

To live your soul’s calling

To have starlight glowing

At your command

Fun For Fido

I chose the SEASONAL WORDS (kigo) LEAF RAKING and LEAF PILES for this week’s #tankatuesday challenge hosted by COLLEEN CHESEBRO.

Leaf raking can take time

Dogs wait with patent smiles

To fly into leaf piles

No help at all
