#Haiku Happenings #4: Jade’s avante gard #tanka for my current #haikai challenge!

Remembering when
God’s rough forms joined the world stage
Two breathed one air.
Clear the head.
Set the tone.
Celebrate!
Toot horns!
Eat! Drink! Pray!
Frank Tassone is the host of Haikai Challenge. Frank says:
Let’s say “Shana Tovah!” to our Jewish brothers and sisters this week. Write the haikai poem (haiku, senryu, haibun, tanka, haiga, renga, etc.) of your choice that alludes to Rosh Hashanah!
I chose to write a tanka, where shadowpoetry indicated one form it could take is a poem of 31 syllables or less, with no set number of syllables per line. If this is not right, someone please let me know, thank you.
