morning gathering
the smell of sweet alyssum
the unique faces
she stops for a moment
and forgets the world’s troubles

    Love the photo, love the tanka, love this. I really love that last line. Makes me just take a deep breath and pause. Thanks for sharing this with us today.

    Pansies are my favorite! They always make me smile, Jone. BTW…Our first grade buddies taught my K kids how to write haiku today, so I’ll return the favor and teach the first graders to write a tanka! 🙂
