New Beginnings – A Tanka
New Beginnings
As winds start to blow Autumn takes the last flower Dropping withered seeds Back to hardened, fallow earth Destined to be born again Copyright © 2020 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Frank Tassone is hosting D’Verse Poets tonight and has prompted us with Jisei (Japanese Death Poems)
Jisei were often written in waka (tanka) or haiku, but death poems are not restricted to those forms. What is essential is the expression of both imminent death and the significance of life in the face of it. In this sense, Jisei is the poetry of both memorial and celebration.
Song Lyric Sunday – Time of the Season
Good morning!
Today, Helen Vahdati’s Song Lyric Sunday prompt is “Season”. This is an old favorite of mine from the 60s by The Zombies, called Time of the Season. It was written by the lead singer Rod Argent. I hope you enjoy it.
Have a great day!
Lyrics
Time of the Season
It's the time of the season
When the love runs high
In this time, give it to me easy
And let me try
With pleasured hands
To take you and the sun to
Promised lands
To show you every one
It's the time of the season for loving
What's your name?
(What's your name?)
Who's your daddy?
(Who's your daddy? He rich?)
Is he rich like me?
Has he taken
(Has he taken)
Any time
(Any time to show)
To show you what you need to live?
Tell it to me slowly
Tell you what?
I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving
What's your name?
(What's your name?)
Who's your daddy?
(Who's your daddy? He rich?)
Is he rich like me?
Has he taken
(Has he taken)
Any time
(Any time to show)
To show you what you need to live?
Tell it to me slowly
Tell you what?
I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving
