It is August and so Jane is doing : a chain of images each one suggested by the last word in the preceding poem. They’ll be short, a single image of just a few lines. It will be interesting to see where it ends up by the end of the month.
Kat will be doing short 3,4, or 5 line poems no syllable counts of rhymes, starting with the word ‘August’ on the first day. The last word of the poem will be the first word of day two’s poem, and so on until the end of the month.
Finally I shall be doing all types of poetry but each poem will start with the last word in the preceding poem.
Today a short 7 line sonnet with an ABAB beat.( Everyother line rhymes.)
Sunset Sonnet.
Sunset, golden in hue and warm
Precursor of the dark night
Which stays with us until dawn
Terrors are ready to take flight.
Dark wings and fangs search prey
Will we rejoice or sorrow in their plight.
Can they survive to see another day .
