she said but he said-Flashback Friday

Tina Stewart Brakebill

For Fandango’s Flashback Friday, I reached back to the days when we still thought that maybe there might be lasting consequences for the lies.

Fandango’s Flashback Friday — September 26th

she said but he said

wilting efforts and fresh lies

laid bare to the world

brown wooden cubes

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

the agonies of change

Tina Stewart Brakebill

days became decades

forged in fire but still easy

our love endures all

Reena’s 400th Prompt asks us to play a game. Visit the site of An Almanac of Birds: 100 Divinations

Click on any one of the 12 pictures. Read the divination and write whatever comes to mind.

I landed on the card above. We’ve been together for 42 years, so this one really resonated. Visit Reena’s page to read more.

Tanka Tuesday-Each Day

Tina Stewart Brakebill

as gold turns to ash

the barren branches quiver

but the green may wane

as spring can bring a swift frost

and each day may be our last
