In the tall green grass of the meadow

In a dimension much like our own

Lives an elf with his misses and family

In a small, dotted mushroom home

Bright red roofs are clustered

A shelter for the little folk inside

Free to be what they want to be

No need to run away and hide

So if you’re walking about in the country

And you spot a mushroom or two

Remember to leave well enough alone

Or elfin magic will come after you!

I watch the Earth weep

As rain falls from a dark sky

Releasing its pain

Til light of day emerges

With colors of a rainbow

 

Authors Note: This was my first attempt at a Tanka.  I’m not sure if I got it right!! All comments, help, etc, are greatly appreciated!

Alligator Alley – #poetry #SeptemberWriting

All the folks called him Alligator Alley

Never questioned just how he did tally

His score on the course, so uncanny

For a gator, whose grip was so clammy

Golfers stood around him, and stared

To question his form, no one dared

Still, his ball would set off any Geiger

But this reptile could never be Tiger

Every day, he would practice his swing

Until one day, he gave up on this thing

Claiming golf was meant only for man

But he’d always remain a true fan!
