Tanka Poem

Hypnotized

Left High and Dry

Hidden dazzling smile and that mesmerizing stare, Blue Eyes hypnotized… the onlookers present there, leaving all so high and Dry.

The above is in response to Brett Christensen PROMPT: Write a haiku or tanka using the prompt word “dry” (or a derivative). And I wish to play this Prompt forward with a twist, calling out to all those tagged (tagging differently today — I shall just click the at symbol and the first 2 drop-down lists are tagged for this challenge) and all those who stop by to read. So I await contributions in Haiku/ Tanka or any form of poetry or a100 word quick story — especially for those who don't write poetry like our Dr Mehmet Yildiz .
