Ensnared in our fears spurning opportunities we ridicule life let us revisit ourselves to unleash blatant power
Linked to dVerse Tuesday Poetics where Lillian wants us to use the word “visit” in our poem.
Also linked to Colleen’s Weekly Tanka challenge # 61 where we must use synonyms of words “stark” and “trap” in our poem. I have used “blatant” for “stark” and “ensnared” for “trap”.

Much to be said in these few words. I’ve always loved the tanka form. The idea of conquering our fears….hiding…..ignoring opportunities….If we do these things, we lose so much of our potent selves. Well said. May we all reach out a bit today and reap the benefits of community. 🙂 Thanks for posting to the prompt!

Fears do seem to ridicule life although it is sometimes hard to get past them.

Fear can limit us so much, but with some courage we can also unleash ourselves…

Thanks for your wonderful words Lillian. Our fears have the ability of bringing out the worst and we easily get swayed by these. So focusing on opportunities is must to live life. Thanks again.
