Stilt stands listening
with its sixth sense on alert
stamping its pink feet
divining oysters for lunch
from beneath the brackish pool

You captured him so well! Mine are always a blur. 😦 Now I’ll have to look up the rules on Tanka 🙂 Happy Thursday, Gilly!
Love stilts – love this post
Great capture Gilly and look at the beautiful reflection. Excellent Tanka as well. Enjoy your day! 😀 ♥
Lovely and the sands are such a soft colour.
Like a painting, making one peaceful just to gaze.
Lovely shot and tanka, Gilly. I like the alliteration. 🙂
Very much like a beautiful painting, Gilly!
Absolutely stunning verse and the photo along with it. ❤ ❤
Not sure what to like the most; the photo or the poem. Either would work on its own. Clever you 🙂
A beautifully composed photo and a tanka that gets inside the mind of the stilt. I love “stamping its pink feet.”
Great capture and perfect Tanka, Gilly. You’re so good at this. 🙂
you made my day with:
