Haiku with One Deep Breath #2 -- One Line Poems
04/01/07

First a note ... If you expected to arrive here and read about Casey and the Magnolia Cafe, something went all sideways and so you can find it on another post of mine: here.

This week the prompt over at One Deep Breath was about writing one line poems. What? A one line poem?

Well, I'd love to explain it to you in detail but besides the fact that I am again posting my poem at the very last second. I'm also striving to accomplish this in about 15 min ... and I'm trying to fix a post gone awry.

go on over to One Deep Breath and read through the references.

My one liner is in keeping with my Texas Spring Fever:

Texas unique thunder storms across rolling prairie hills.

I enjoy your comments. And I want you to enjoy reading each other's comments. To that end purpose, I moderate comments. If you're impatient, MeeboMe.

Commenting Ideas
  • If you do not have a blog or site, skip the "web site" line, pull a name or "handle" out of your head, write a note, push the button. (No excuses!)
  • If this entry reminds you of a story of a similar place in time in your life, you are welcome to tell your story.
  • If you discover your story is taking more than 3 or 4 paragraphs (and if you have a place on the web for your writings), I will not be insulted if you take your story back and finish it at your own site. But then I will be disappointed if you don't come back and leave me a summary of your story and a link -- in the comments.
  • If you have already written a story about a similar place in time, please feel free to leave a summary and a link.
  • It's never too late to make a comment or tell a story.

I'm no poet and, I have to admit, I hate reading poetry. But I know a great one-line poem if I read one. And yours is great.

My favorite one-line poem:

Ants

Adam had 'em

~ LOL Thanks Mike! ~pam

(Note to self: Mike is very easy to amaze and amuse ... be sure he keeps reading your blog. :~)

I have to admit the first reading, I totally blew your one line for you, but the next one it let me know who was right, and it was definitely your one line!

~ LOL I'm so glad to know I'm not the only one! I thought it the way I wrote it. But when I read it, I read it wrong.

I'm also looking forward to reading other people's poetry. Thanks for stopping by.

    Why does this Site Exist?
    10/26/06
    My website is largely my memoir ... my musings, photos, encounters, life's stories.

    But what really thrills me is that when I let go of my stories, it's like sending out little sail boats out on expeditions. Very often they come back to me filled with other people's stories. Continue...
