For Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday the lovely photo prompt above was provided by David, for my ekphrastic, I have decided to try the ‘Abhanga’ form today, it’s titled and written in any number of 4 line stanzas, rhyming scheme abbc and syllables 6-6-6-4 – it’s a new one for me,
thanks for stoping by 🙂

Very well done! Knew immediately who you were talking about. However, when I first looked at the image, I saw “Small World.” Now, I can’t get that song out of my head. 😉

Powerful, AJ! It’s heartbreaking to watch anyone suffer, especially when it is needless. Thank you for sharing the video. Hearing the voices brought tears. ❤️
