Since I really enjoy writing in the haiku and tanka forms I decided to write one haiku and two tankas for the Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie – Heeding Haiku With HA: To Egyptian Mythology Prompt.
~
Anubis
Anubis (Tanka)
Souls in transition
Under sacred watchful eyes
Do not be afraid
Anubis is guiding you
Into life everlasting
~
Anubis (Haiku)
Fear not the jackal
He is not what he appears
Anubis protects
~
Bastet
Bastet (Tanka)
Do not fear your death
Bastet protects as armor
Securing your life
You shall not be defeated
By your mortal enemies
