Do You Smile?

Written in response to https://wordcraftpoetry.com/category/tanka-tuesday-poetry-challenges/

On a scale of one to ten

Do you feel like a fish on dry land ?

Living from month to month

Surviving on soup and a prayer

Do you smile, but underneath your

stressed like burning sticks

slaving away for little thanks

property of your own doubts.

I am a fifty something mother of two grown up children, and one beautiful grandchild. I have been married for nearly thirty-four years. My first book was published ten years ago. I wrote my book Sticks and Stones because of my experience of being bullied at school.
