Just playing around with short poetry -
Cinquain (2.4.6.8.2)
Golden
Little pendants
Floating on the way down
Nourishing new life for the next
Springtime
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haiku (5,7,5)
My Man
The only man for
Me is a boy at heart who
Protects my heart, too
Three Paths
Three paths show me how
Past, present, and future tell
The story of me
—-------------------------------------------------------------------
Triad
(2,4,6,8,2 format) Comparing 3 different, but connected ideas/things/concepts
In the Night
Cries shriek
After a score,
Bats soaring in night sky,
Teenage girls at a Swift concert
Then still
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Free Verse
Christmas Dreams
Orange shag carpet and
Wood grain paneling,
visits me In late night
dreams covering me
With the warmth of childhood..
Visions of holiday tree lights
Cast a warm glow
through the night
I sleep wrapped in a
crocheted blanket
All by myself
as my family sleeps in their own beds.
Such good imagery. Really nice use of poetic forms. I have always avoided poetry, but it will be fun to try these. Thank you, Kathy!
