Yesterday I was tired, yet managed a haiku for the challenge…
Today I was coming home, in the broad daylight and saw the moon out, as you do, in the bright blue sky!
Well, it got my brain ticking, and apologies, the phone photo isn’t clear, but here is a picture and haiku inspired by that sight!
The Moon’s confused mind
Sent him out far too early…
It’s the sun’s time now!Ritu 2016
Then I felt a Tanka coming on…
Staring at the moon
Wondering where you are now
Do you think of me?
I miss your sunny disposition
Your smiles would brighten my day…Ritu 2016

That and tension, or that’s what the doctor thinks… I keep getting severe headaches and he says they are not migraines this time…. seeing the dentist too next week as I appear to be grinding my teeth and clenching my jaw. .. I’m falling apart!
