(The link is under my poem). I really wanted to write something which sprang from internal inspiration, and the words of this poem resonated with me in the week my daughter turned 18. So I wrote something in the same style. Shortly after posting it, I realized that dVerse had a post encouraging writers to write in the style of... So as hard as I tried I couldn't escape the meme. Some kind people have already commented, but I link it here today, because I have nothing else that's new. Long story.. thanks for entertaining me :)
I wrote this poem a couple of years ago. It's based on a real person, a former neighbor and mother of an old friend. I'd been looking for a reason to use it. Thanks for the opportunity!

Don't know why I wrote a tanka instead of cinquain... will fix this.
