pre-dawn cloudburst
flowers hang their heavy heads
old man heaves
coming home from Hurley’s Pub
hanging low away from mum

One would feel naturally guilty not coming home for the night but only at pre-dawn. Good observation and good lines Cheryl!

A nice kyoka .. or maybe a tanka … in the sense that you wrote it very well dear friend … though I’ve got my doubts about up-chucking people being humorous 😉

I wanted to make it a solo renga but left it as tanka. Enough was said. The hum our of course was more tongue in cheek. I had another I may share but on the other blog. I still chuckle thinking about it.

I may have to change my title to (Kyoka) …I just learned that the humour changed it. So much to learn!

And here I thought it was a tanka…so is it due to the humour that makes it a tanka?

Kyoka is more meant as humorfull and satiric … tanka is more the serious way and often more for writing poems for your loved one(s).
