No Need for Name Calling
An Etheree
Knock
Who's there?
Tap, tap, tap
Tap tap tap who?
Knock, knock, tap, tap, bam
Who's that rapping my door?
Knock, knock, tap, tap, bam, bam, ding
Pressing the doorbell again, dong
Trodding to the door, you yell, coming!
Just open the door already, Ding Dong!
Robbie invites us to write a poem using onomatopoeia for this week’s Tanka Tuesday challenge. I tried to add some humor to this one about someone knocking at the door. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy it!π And thank you, Robbie, for your inspiration. ππ½π

I love the sprinkling of humor in your Etheree, O’Nika. The last line made me laugh! π
Colleen, thank you so much! I’m glad you had a laugh! ππ½π
I love this, it certainly carries the whole scene so well, and the last line I love the ambiguity which is told only by the title – clever.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed. ππ I see that you caught my “odd” sense of humorπ
In my house the dog would be barking mad πππ
