single yellow leaf
the first on the cherry tree
it hung there all week
yesterday the wind blew strong
the yellow leaf has fallen

Tanka Splendour has just been restarted, with the weekly challenge of creating a Tanka on a given theme. This week the theme is autumn leaves.

A plain and simple Tanka – beautiful and most evocative of time passing and the individual. G:)

Wow Kim what a beautiful tanka you share here with us. The fragile beauty of a fallen leaf.
