Tanka Thursday

On Fridays with my English classes, we have independent writing. Last week the writing prompt was about what you would do if you earned a billion dollars. The only stipulation with earning the money is that you had to give half of it to charity.

I wrote a story along with them, but later I went back and wrote a tanka using the same prompt in mind.

A billion dollars!
If I won, I would tanka
all day, triolet
all night, pay off all my debt
and give money to the arts.
