Good to see you theoldlady.
Osso, give it a go--sounds like fun.
What does he look like?
A twin toad in a sweater
Who has no good news
'scuse it,
I get excited?...
Hi Madame Di, glad to see you too.
What does he look like?,
asked the young thrilled girl
before her blind date
before her blind date
she copied the messages

Read the whole thread, it gives a background for doing our own tanka bits...
Ah.
I just read the whole thread. A wonderful one.
Let's keep it going.
What does he look like-
that brute that gave you the bruise?
Just let me at him!!!
Just let me at him!
Haul his ass to the station!
And, yes, wait in line.
And yes, wait in line
While we teach this brute lessons
About vi-o-lence.
About violence,
I am not the one to ask,
I so decry it.
I so decry it
It never brings about peace
It always adds pain.
It always adds pain,
no benefit to those in
wait, either. Just so.
Wait, either. Just so
you know that I am cooking.
Don't keep eating snacks.
Don't keep eating snacks?
How will I live? How will I
make it day to day?
Make it day to day
A good way to live your life
All will be made clear.
All will be made clear
When we die. Or maybe not.
No use worrying.
No use worrying.
It's water under the bridge.
Today is new day.
Today is new day
The present is a gift, the
Past is history.
The past is history
Full of omens and portents
Of what will yet come.
Of what will yet come
We cannot know nor guess. So
Let's talk of people.
