Notes

Hoarder [2024] is an adapted tanka for all the half-finished thoughts in my notes app.
Fun Fact! The central vein in a leaf is called the midrib, and the very small veins are called venules.

Hoarder

I grab ideas
Like a child grabs at loose leaves.
I know, that someday,
They will dry up and crumble
When I touch them. But for now,
They are still shining,
With the morning dew.
When I hold them to the light,
I can see the veins
Of new promises.
