#TankaTuesday this week was an ekphrastic challenge. Reena Saxena provided a piece of her artwork.
Great news, our accurate syllable counter is rebranded as https://www.traveldailylife.com/syllables/. I’ll add this update to our next challenge.

Loves the nature songs! And thank you for the update on the syllable counter. I thought I was losing my mind. (Well perhaps I have lost my mind, but we can discuss that some other time) 😉

Thank you, Balroop. I love the little fishes and the flow of water. The shapes reminded me of the passage of the moon through the sky during a month. ❤

Everything boils down to the rhythm of life – singing different songs for different people.

What a beautiful interpretation of the image, Colleen. I did not see the moon. I saw those sections as slices of the earth.
