Sitting on the porch
In a red shirt, drinking tea
Hummingbird zooms close
We walk hand in hand
By the calm lake in moonlight
Ankles scratched by grass
In my heart’s eye you
Are still young, running swiftly
On the rugby pitch
We lie on our backs
Seeing shapes in the clouds
The wind blows gently
Fireflies blinking
Above the lawn in the dark
Childhood memories
You do 5, I can’t even do one
You can! Just think 5-7-5 syllables and try to get a reference in to nature. Just have fun with them. OK, here’s one for you off the top of my head…
Black dog lying down
Looks up with good-natured eyes
Time to take a walk
Not fabulous, but so what?!
Beautiful work.
I’m happy you enjoyed them. I like to write things other than just the Friday Fictioneers, although that,s always fun,too.
Me too. I like to write. The Friday Fictioneers is a great challenge.
