STOP SHORT #1: September Morn
*a-5-ch chinese chueh-chu

The dawn hides between words.
Paper-thin thoughts ... cover me.
Your kiss; holds my name,
lost syllables ... until you spoke

I use short poems because I can write the very long ones but no-one reads beyond their fade off limit.

I decided to look at the real audience that reads wanted and it was short punchy and they didn't give damn apart from being entertained.

It was on this site but at one point I used a single letter and 30 people helped to write something.

Write what you happy with - dont write for others, write for and believe in yourself.

Everything goes in cycles.

I should have said it wasn't on this site, not it was.

Can I leave my mistake and Summer's Morn for you which I have put on the site before.

Dave

Summer’s Morn

Looking into your eyes
A crimson mess
Swirling the world beneath your feet
Flowing your hair to match your dress
And the love of your eyes
Was deep, sad and warm

I saw the tilt of your nose
Light the smile of your lips
The love of belonging
In your own time and space
A deep laughter in your throat
Of another summer's morn

dave,

thank you for sharing "summer's morn" with me. i'm sorry that i missed it when you shared. as for you writing long ones, i give you back your own words.... write and share what comes from you, for you. no one else.

i don't write for others. i only left the note in case someone else is more familiar with this form of writing. as it's brand new for me.

.....again, thank you for sharing your poem it is beautiful and i'm glad i had the chance to read it.

thank you both for taking the time to comment.

Hey Snow, I really like the poem here.
Don't know this form but it does look like an interesting one.

if anyone is interested, send me an email and i can try to explain ;-)
it was more difficult reading the how to's than just doing it :-D (i think)
thank you for the comments.
