For today’s Tanka Tuesday Challenge Willow challenged us to describe a moment of our day, how it makes you feel and how it affects you. This challenge employs writing a Tricube: three stanzas, three lines per stanza, and three syllables per line. Here’s mine.
Singing Hymns
vocalize
singing scales
voice feels warm
piano
melody
poetry
hymns of old
sweet Spirit
joy-filled soul

Kaci, I loved learning more about you through your tricube poetry. What fun. 💙
Thanks, Colleen! I need to read all the other posts. I love doing that! But I have been so swamped as of late. The different online challenges have kept me writing poetry daily, which is a personal goal. And I feel as though I am making new friends, and I adore that!
Oh! I loved this 💜💜💜
Aw, thank you, Willow!
Beautiful poem, Kaci!

Thank you, Yvette!
I sing to myself… the lullablies I made up for my kiddos and grands. And other ditties too. But I don’t have anything recorded.
I did enjoy the singing groups. But when it got to competitive and complex… it was time for me to bow out.
Enjoy 🎼🎤🎶
I recorded several times with my church and with another Southern California based choir. Then I recorded a Broadway CD with a friend, and one 26 years ago of original Christian songs. All great experiences. Love that you made up and sing the lullabies. ❤️ That’s so sweet.
Once with one of the choirs we got to sing at this fancy flower place that had a huge pipe organ that accompanied us for some program. They hardly play that organ – so that was a treat.
Continued success with all you do 🙂
Oh, that’s super cool! You too!
I belonged to two different singing groups for a total of about 17 years. But I am not a musician nor really musically inclined. I did have fun though. 🙂
Wonderful!! Singing is so good for you. Have been singing since before I could talk. LOL
Kaci, the first stanza sums it all up. Great poem!
Thank you. Yep. Today was a good vocal day. They don’t come as often as they used to. I was full of joy.
