A LANTURNE

Michael Edwards

 

White

the wraiths

of mist fade

after the night

dawn.

    This is very close to a FIBS poem where the syllables go 1,1,2,3,5,8,13. Good write.

    • Michael Edwards

      Yes - a long while since I tried a FIBS. Thanks Andy.

        I was up at 4 and went back to bed - I've got a drive over to Ironbridge today so thought I better get a bit more rest

        Ohhhhhh MICHAEL only Numero Due today ~ oversleep ? Nice pen & ink ~ Itallia ? All good poetry is governed by rhythm (syllabic) not rhyme and 12341 has a nice crisp lilt to it and 11 syllables are easy to assimilate (understand even) @ 7 in the morning ! Love the cycle of the poem ~ Thanks for PENNING ~ please sample my City Girls clothed invitingly in SENRYU SARONGS ! BRIAN

          Been out in Ironbridge all day and was running around getting ready first thing and missed the slot. Written two more which I'll post over the weekend - thanks for comments Brian.

          You got the syllables right, it does look like a lantern (kind of), and I love the words!

          • Michael Edwards

            Seems to work - two more to inflict over the weekend. Thanks Fred
