school day's end the bell dongs children scatter wild sparrows flitting in shrill joy freedom seems to #sing loudest and boldest at the outer limits of rules and beliefs #vss365 #tanka

the bell dongs
children scatter
wild sparrows flitting
in shrill joy
freedom seems to #sing
loudest and boldest
at the outer limits
of rules
and beliefs#vss365 #tanka
dawn magpies #endorse their song as daily bread meanwhile trails of ants #endorse work beyond the self #vss365 #haiku #micropoetry

winds bear my old songs faint old songs from my old life my #yearning connects past songlines and tomorrows locked in one anxious refrain #vss365 #tanka #writingcommunity #poetry

a roaring bonfire #jovial songs sear the night a fun happy place yet all know this is surreal in these days of endless wars #vss365 #tanka #micropoetry

Wow...You have brought back a flood of memories...I too learnt this song for choir in primary school days in Sydney, Australia...
