A scarlet ship

Chris Hall47 Comments


now this is a super scarlet ship
and she’s massive and marvellous,
she’s sleek and swift in the seas.
there are many major
operations on
this fine vessel.
so what’s next?
shall we
see?

it
was a
dangerous
mission this time.
the crew were clever
as always, as the waves
were lashing and moaning, but
she was able to aid, for all,
such a splendid, superb scarlet ship.

For Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge No. 80, Alliteration, Robbie has asked that we write a syllabic form using alliteration. Plus a lovely painting down there.

  16. I’ve gotten behind on reading everyone’s blogs and commenting. Sometimes I hit “like” whenI first read them and go back later to comment. I thought I was “liking” this one and pressed the star and realized I had “unliked” it so I had to like it back again! 😂
