on the crescent moon,
these thoughts
I'm just too tired
to think...
(at the end of a busy week......exhausted. ONE DAY 'TIL SPRING BREAK!!! :)

About Me
- Kristin Riggs
- I have had a passion for the written word, especially poetry, from an early age. I am first and foremost a child of God-a thankful recipient of His grace. I am also a mother, a teacher, a singer,and an overall music lover. I call the beautiful southern United States home, and growing up and raising my family here has shaped who I am in many ways. I believe that life- with its various emotions, experiences, trials, and joys-is a gift from my Heavenly Father. As a poet, I hope that my work expresses this. "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him." -Psalm 62:1 Some of my poetry has been published in the online journals Simply Haiku and Notes from the Gean.
This is very moving...
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Spring Break!

ReplyDeleteI love how you put things in abeyance :)

ReplyDeleteBest wishes, Kristin! _m
I generally don't comment on tanka, since I rarely write them, but I really like this.
ReplyDeleteVeary Beautiful! :-)
ReplyDeleteWow...thank you everyone! I really appreciate all the kind words. Bill...you should try a tanka. Anyone who write beautiful haiku like yours would surely be a master at writing tanka as well. :)
ReplyDeleteI meant "writes"...leave it to the English teacher. Subject-verb agreement is very important to me. Unfortunately, my fingers get away from me sometimes when I type. :) Oops.
ReplyDeleteyour thoughts resting, your spirit growing, Happy Spring Break!
