Today I'm participating in author Colleen Chesebro's weekly Tanka challenge. Using the 5/7/5/7/7 syllable structure, Colleen explains that this week's Tanka poem of five lines must be written from the first person point of view.

If you are interested to trying this art form, please click on Colleen's name. You'll be taken to her site, where you'll find much information about writing Tanka verse.
