#12 Garden of Weeding

Today's prompt : the Tanka. "
The Japanese tanka is a thirty-one-syllable poem, traditionally written in a single unbroken line. A form of waka, Japanese song or verse, tanka translates as "short song," and is better known in its five-line, 5/7/5/7/7 syllable count form." --See more at: http://www.poets.org/viewmedia.php/prmMID/5793#sthash.trCeBDDV.dpuf


The break came Not with
the red snake's death, But new life
she decided to
let the weeds flourish, just grow
Because the bunnies loved them.
