7 Tankafuls About Gratitude This Week

Week 3 of small ordinary object or moments that I have been thankful for this week. Here are 7 more tanka poems- or Tankafuls, as I like to call them.

Nov. 15th

Spherical green leaves

Delicate tendrils cascade

Beaded String of Pearls

Small new orb on tip of vine

Excites this caregiver’s heart

Nov 16th

First notes tickle ears

Crank the volume- favorite song

Head bops to the beat

Karaoke Queen rises

Belting out lyrics proudly

Nov 17th

Whisper in my mind

Friend’s name floats through my brainwaves

Frequently through day

Reach out- you’re on my mind text

Exchange thoughts, support, love, laughs

Nov 18th

Evicting the gray-

Brilliant return today

Gladdening the world

Joy-filled illumination

Enlivening human souls

(So grateful for those sunbeams today)

Nov 19th

Now home for the day

Your comfiness calls to me

Change out of work clothes

Ease into soft pajamas

Instant stress release-relax

Nov 20th

Energy is drained

Eyelids down, up, down to stay

Twenty minute nap

Rejuvenated- ready

For what the night has in store

Nov 21st

Paint on my highlights

Snip, cut, shape my brighter locks

Blow dry, style- viola!

Your talented hands leave me

Feeling like a top model

I encourage you to look around and notice small things that make you feel thankful over this coming week. Once you start noticing them, you will have many more than 1 a day.
