A Shadorma
birthday start(!); dimmed lights enshroud all... astonish! overjoyed, tribe honors dear matriarch; merriments ensue!

Tanka Tuesday
This shadorma is written for today’s #TankaTuesday prompt, which is to incorporate three of these randomly generated words in a syllabic form:
I employed the following three words: 1) ‘birthday’, 2) ‘astonish’, 3) ‘overjoyed’.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)
