AN ESSENCE

Michael Edwards

 

 

On the plain gentle rain

Summer grain wet again.

 

 

 

 The Essence, created by Emily Romano is a short,

structured form of two-lines, six syllables each with

an end rhyme and internal rhyme. This one has the

same end rhyme for both.

          Have a go Andy - nice and short so they don't take up much time.

          Hi Michael - Happens that I like short concise poems as well - however while you have very logical patterns you study and stick to, I think in my case it is about short attention span.........

            Availability of time to write epics doesn't exist I'm afraid - thanks Lorna.

            Short SPIKE ~ I LIKE

            A SPIKE is a riposte poem !

            Thanks for sharing and educating. The recent
            Warm weather (65F) has encouraged the
            double DAFFS in our town which is now a
            Blaze of White & Yellow. Yours BRIAN

              Michael,
              A great pic of your double daffodil! I like your shortie and its name! Thank you for defining what ā€œAn Essenceā€ is so I donā€™t have to look it up and be disappointed that I canā€™t find it! Lol
