Lovely idea!

Crisp autumn breezes
blow orange, russet and gold
leaves that crunch the earth.

Pick a big pumpkin,
Sketch a scary face, then there's
My Jack-O-lantern.

Black cats and witches,
Caldrons smoke, skeletons scare!
Halloween is here!

For those who haven't tried tanka, they are syllable counted

5-7-5-7-7

and each line tends to stand alone, not "wrap" to the next line smile

Letter to the Dead

Blank words on a page
Staring, still staring, again
My hand stayed by loss
