Upon my window
The winds of time beat softly
Autumn leaves swirl
Things are changing again
Life keeps moving forward
Tanka

Upon my window
The winds of time beat softly
Autumn leaves swirl
Things are changing again
Life keeps moving forward
Tanka

There once was a brown squirrel
Who upon a bird feeder did swirl
He tried to get a treat
But trouble he did meet
When he got dizzy from the twirl

Written in honor of National Limerick Day-May 12

Thanks to Suzanne Eller ( @suzanneeller on Twitter ) who’s tweet on twirling today inspired me to write this poem.
