Colleen’s 2019 Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 137 #SynonymsOnly

It’s Tuesday, and that means Colleen’s Tanka Challenge! Of course, just providing a couple of words would be far too simple, so we have two words, yes, but we can’t use them! Only synonyms allowed!

Kind & Shift

Meditation, Love, Service, Engagement

An alteration
In attitude will bring
About compassion
We all need to change the way
That we act and see the world

    I thought I had commented earlier, but drat! Better late than never, I suppose?

    Anyway, what I thought I had said was this poem presents such a great call to action! No better call than to kindness. 🙂

    Well said, sis! We need to change our attitude, our thinking. In remaining where we are we cannot expect something to change for the better… talking and whining doesn’t suffice!
