Day Twenty Six

APRIL

What about April

Even weeds are weedier

What happened to spring

More showers this year than last

And today the snow came back  

In Piccadilly

The man with the feeding tray

Waiting for the birds

The grass is always astro

Dream on you know you can’t play

NaPoWriMo 2013 Day Eleven

NaPoWriMo 2013
Day Eleven
The prompt today is to write a tanka. This, like the “American” cinquain, is a poem based on syllables, with the pattern being 5-7-5-7-7. They work best when those final two 7-syllable lines contain a sort of turn or surprise that the first three lines might not wholly anticipate. You can string a bunch of them together to make a multi-stanza poem, or just write one!

Here's mine:

ROCK 'N' ROLL

The rock 'n' roll years

on stage in front of the crowd

the deafening throng

looking for a miracle

five thousand more mouths to feed
