Happy Good Friday, everyone. We rise anew.

A sweet, sugared cross
A fresh bun from the oven
Bread that makes cold hands.
Some bread breaks to rise anew
And moulds again to greatness.

They looked delicious, I want them now. Well Done- you made my mouth water this morning.
Thoroughly enjoyed your evocative poem… like Dharrsheena and Lana, I’m keen for some Hot Cross Buns now!🤣 I had to look up Tanka poetry… might have to try one sometime.🤔 Happy Easter❣️.
