No, I didn't win The Wee Sparrow Poetry Press' second Ekphrastic Challenge, but... I am indeed one of the featured poets. 😃 Click on the link below and scroll down to read my poem 'I remember the woman', inspired by the painting by Maria Berenguer Lahoz.

Straw plenty, grown for warmth,
Comfort in the darkening days,
Chrysanthemum's bloom halts
Winter's icy endeavor,
Golden petals, a silent plea.

This week's tanka using this week's words 🙂

Grown from tiny seeds,
Nourished by sun and rain,
A tree stands tall.

Look forward to reading your haiku - seeing where these lines take you.
