    Clever constructs these, Michael! I do appreciate well shaped poems.

    • Michael Edwards

      I agree about the construct but I do wonder if the need to stick to form detracts from poetic imagery - more concerned with getting words to fit than with seeking poetic flow - if you know what I mean. Mind you they are certainly not easy.

      • Louis Gibbs

        I'm sure they are not easy. To me they represent challenging poetic exercises, as opposed to poetic expressions. Nothing wrong with accepting a challenge! It's fulfilling when it works out.

      • FredPeyer

        Like both of them. I also sleep very heavily, nothing can wake me. You could probably steal my wife from right beside me! But I usually do remember the last dream, or at least part of it, right after waking up. But not for very long.

      • Frank Prem

        No 1 is stronger for me, Michael. Enjoyed reading them both.

      • rrodriguez

        Interesting form for pithy reflections. They evoke reflection and pause. Nicely done!

        • Michael Edwards

          Thank you for your kind comment

        • Goldfinch60

          Two very clever Edones Michael. I too like the second one. Dreams are there to inspire us, if we ever reach our dreams for what do we then aspire.

          • Michael Edwards

            Thanks Andy - I guess they are useful if you can remember them.

          • orchidee

            I be one that gives praise because noticing poeticism excellence - right here! Note this edone? 1,2,3, letters, up to 10 (excellence). Mind you, I not be speaking proper in making this comment!

            • Michael Edwards

              I speak not in makin answer to yer post in - cheers O

            • Mugsdaddy

              These are both excellent but have you ever considered doing one in reverse form? Just a suggestion.
              Mugsdaddy

              • Michael Edwards

                Thanks mugsdaddy - have thought about the reverse form but I'm a bit of a coward and haven't tried it yet - BUT your prompt has worked - will give it a go sometime.

              • BRIAN & ANGELA

                Thanks MICHEAL ~ Allegations and Dreams ~ the former best ignored ~ the latter best remembered ~ because "once in a while along the way ~ they can come true ! Yours BRIAN. Please check the new S & B Collaboration on "Seasons of Love" ~ Thanks S & B

                • Michael Edwards

                  Thanks and will look in latest S & B collab.

                • myself and me

                  I know Edone better now. I thought it should start with one letter word, in this case, there is not much to start with. Start with two-letter word, open it up to more possibilities. Enjoy both.

                  • Michael Edwards

                    There's no rule that you have to start with a single letter word - one day I might start one with a seven letter word or there again....!

                  • orchidee

                    Cooee, did you swoon at my 'comment edone'? I did - swooned at my own brilliance! Oh vanity - I must eat humble pie now! heehee.

                    • Michael Edwards

                      With cream? Or are you a custard baby = err laced with sherry that is.

                      • orchidee

                        Erm, never quite known the ingredients for humble pie? How does one make it?!

                        Again amazing , nice line drawing Michael

                      • MendedFences27

                        Wonderful stuff. Great ideas expressed in a rigid format. Very difficult. Too challenging for me, I have enough trouble with meter and rhymes. On the second Edone (my favorite) I believe un-remembered dreams soon become
                        De-ja vu. Your artwork is, as always, outstanding. - Phil

                        Hey Michael, I'm happy to be back here and read your poetry again. Nice form. I'm studying a bit but forms still too complicated for me. Answer for your question' I have very lite sleep and have mostly little dreams that I can remember instantly. Some dreams can affect my next day with happiness, excitement or sadness. Negativity.
