Tanka and Choka


Tanka very much
I’ll tanka til I choka
Tinking in tanka
Responding in more tankas
And then I’ll choka some more.

Bridget, this is just too funny!!
I'd like to try to choka your tanka here.
So here goes..

Yours>>>

Tanka very much
I’ll tanka til I choka
Tinking in tanka
Responding in more tankas
And then I’ll choka some more.

Mine>>>

Choking on tanka
I cannot stop the laughter
While taking a drink
Water spurting out my mouth
The classroom is getting wet

Oh Tammy Blessing
You got the classroom all wet
Teach Nan will choka
Unless you bring her apples
We always bribe her with fruits

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

Sunshine

Strawberries, you’ll find
Will be my fruit of the day
But please promise me
You will not choka on them
Tanka very, very much

Bridget Senachie~
I like your Tanka muchly
So much, that in fact
I think I will submit one
Long before I 'choka' too~

No way one can choke
Margy dear you tanka good
Everyone skipped class
Let's have some music and dance
I like to dance the tanka

What happened to class?
Everyone's saying Tanka,
But I see Choka
All on the playground with Marge.
I think I will Choka them.

Titia challenged us to write
Tammy spurts water

Nan scolds and we write some more!

Well now tell me true
did not teacher promise stew?
Seems like we are here
Tanka, Chok'ing Senryus
With a Haiku here and there...
