Next Generation. by Terry Reilly
Write a Tanka writing prompt entry
Artwork by VMarguarite at FanArtReview.com

The fruit of our loins
 
carry forth our hopes and dreams.
 
Our much loved children
 
scale the heights, outrun the odds;
 
triumphing where we have failed.


Writing Prompt
A Tanka is related to the unrhymed haiku but does not have to be nature related. The syllable count is 5-7-5-7-7. Poetry Dances has 2 lovely examples.
No politics please.

Author Notes
At least, that is how we want it to play out.
