wild cloud blooms are
a wonder to behold
deep and dark
light and bright
in harmony with the
breeze…the soul of rain

It’s a Saturday, so I decided to combine poetry forms: an Elfchen using Magnetic Poetry tiles from the Nature Collection because…hey, why not! 😊
An Elfchen is known as an “elevenie” in English, the German elfchen (which loosely translates to “little eleven” or “Elfchenwee eleven”) contains 11 words separated into five lines: one word, then two, then three, then four, then one again. The first line of an elfchen is traditionally some single-word concept, thought, or thing, which the rest of the poem describes—what it does, how it looks, how it makes you feel, whatever strikes your fancy. The last line is often a synonym or some other overarching reflection of your first word.

NaPoWriMo2023 Challenge Day 13: try writing a short poem (or a few, if you’re inspired) that follows the beats of a classic joke. Emphasize the interplay between the form of the poem – such as the line breaks – and the punchline.
For this challenge I decided to write a haiku style poem using the magnetic poetry online tool…Nature Kit.

(a five-part Magnetic Poetry poem using the Nature kit)
it’s elemental
if i was the wind
i would breathe through you
murmuring sweet poetry and
gently toss your hair
only to hear you sigh
if i was the rain
I would sweeten your
garden with lovely wetness
only to see you grow wild
and verdant, glistening in the sun
if i was the earth
brown and fertile beneath you
i would make a soft bed of
thick moss in the cool dark
so you can rest your soul
when this world is too much
if i was the sun
i would blanket you
in warmth, in pure love,
from dawn to dusk and
even through the night,
the moon shining bright
in wind and rain, earth
and fiery sun, always
know that i am here
gently loving you with
all that i am
