soft the light plays, dawning
dreams give way to longing

Tart Sweet
absinthian nips
even saccharine infused
may puckers one’s lips

Which Came First?
some say ‘twas the egg
not the chicken that came first
but they’d be laying

Florette #2
full-faced moon, lucent dreams
clouds race on tempest streams
~kat
A blustery nor’easter raged into town last night under the light of March’s first Full Worm Moon. The howling noise kept my dogs alert and close by on this sleepless night. This is Day 2 of this challenging poetry form inspired by Jane Dougherty, who I am convinced is a sadist or masochist, or both, for having suggested this two-lined beast. 🙂 Just kidding…all in fun Jane…you know I am always up for a challenge. 🙂
Florette #1
rain-sopped, soggy grey
frizzled mop, bad hair day

Short Form Florette (two lines of six syllables each, with an end rhyme and an internal rhyme). March’s daily poem style thanks to Jane Dougherty. Don’t let the two line, six syllable form fool you. It is a brutal little mind bender. But oh the satisfaction when you nail it!
