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!

Clear & Nature

Relax, Read, Book, Rest, Enjoy

It isn't simple
Judging someone's character
On a first meeting
Never judge a book, they say
By cover, more lies within

    The first impression may be important but it can be so tricky!

    Ohhhh, this Tanka is especially good, Sis. I love the last line and there is more than one way to read that! Excellent! ❤

    Don’t you wish the Disney technique of “They look evil” worked? Then we could just become beautiful by being nice! 🙂

    Never easy to judge someone when meeting them, but unfortunately, most of us do it.
