A Free Flow Attempt

Rozina

 

The brook meanders along

Its bed of sand and leaves and stones

Sunlight glimpsed through a canopy of leaves

Dazzled the brook

Sparkling diamonds in its path.

A bird swoops down.

A treasure for her nest?

No, it's just a stone, the bird flies back to her tree

The brook meanders on.....

My first free verse poem attempt. Rhyming style is easier for me! Will keep on trying various forms of poetry that I am learning about.

            Free verse is the way ahead, makes it a story and that makes the journey interesting.

            • Rozina

              Thank you. I need to practise and let the section of the brain that keeps wanting to rhyme to switch off for a while.

              Beginners luck? I think not Rozina. I echo Saxon Crows comment.🥂🌹🕊🌞

                I also enjoy rhyming poems but written like a true poet. Great job at a first attempt!!

                • Rozina

                  Thank you!

                  So nice to see your free verse. I almost always write in that style and it honestly feels really liberating, there's a lot of freedom in the style. An amazing poem, indeed.

                  • Rozina

                    Thank you. I actually found this more difficult to write than my rhyming ones.

                  • Michael Edwards

                    Well you didn't do too badly at all - a little gem of a write.

                    • Rozina

                      Thank you. Free verse, limericks, sonnets, haikus, senryus, so many types of poems I am learning about on MPS.

                      • Michael Edwards

                        When I write serious stuff (whuich I do sometimes) free verse is my favourite. Yes it's a good community here on MPS.

                            The story telling is good. The images are fitting and it like the stream flows well.

                            • Rozina

                              Thank you.
