Well I now have two possible poems about waterfalls at the moment. This is the shorter one. I have been experimenting with different line lengths to create an interesting form. I was trying to make a tear drop/ water droplet shape.
A
waterfall
is a silver,
satin ribbon
sown into the side
of a craggy cliff.
Shimmering droplets
cascade down, pooling
into a great, gleaming eye.
Watching the water gushing,
pouring, and trickling, soothes
my soul and relieves my pain.

beautiful, Katherine.
ReplyDeleteI love that you can shape poetry. A few more lines going in would have made it even more complete in terms of the shape. :)
Thanks. :) Hopefully I can think of some more words to complete the shape sometime soon!
