Just Another Day

The shuttle returns
from destinations unknown
with new tales to tell
as another day unfolds
aboard the Starship Zephyr.

My poem in response to Linda Kruschke’s Paint Chip Poetry Challenge Prompt #46. This week’s theme comes from A Treasury of Christian Poetry. It’s a poem called “Obedience.” The paint chip words and phrases are starshipzephyrslowblack widow, coffeelemonade, and sunny-side up. Pick two or three, and no more, of these words and phrases and write a tanka. That means you get a total of 31 syllables written in lines of 5/7/5/7/7.
