Hope- Tanka and Haiku
A Shul of old men
filled with their whole lifelong songs
and pieces of hope
Sometimes a tanka
leaves more room than a haiku
for conveying hope
Instead of saying
a bird that flies she called it
the thing with feathers
thus allowing it to slip

Interesting..the story on the story in tanka and haiku:)-
The Haiku Horizons thing is neat. I see this week's prompt is "cold." Here's my offering:
Into the warm house
I touch my hand to her neck
And say, "cold fingers!"
That was me as well.
