writer's boom

a tricube poem  

pencil sword sharp
         paper point blank
                    quiet midnight room

                              battling mental warp
                                        my thinking tank
                                                 needs cobweb broom

                                                           come, tuneful harp
                                                                     bloom, lyric bank
                                                                                explosive writer’s boom

Walk With Me

( a tricube poem )  
    
     
nothing guaranteed yet   
I’m only human;    
a defiant heart    
     
love and art    
walking night’s edge,    
no telling apart    
     
my words unconfined,    
stars raining down    
kissing this shoreline

Vine & Vigor

White lotus trails \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
meander sloping hillside
dot as requiem
 
kiss like sun 
with earth touch
organic leaf love
 
from mystical trees
and the valley
sigh, raining down

Poetry: Mystical Delineation

(a tricube poem)
 
Heavenly formation encrypted,
Whisper artistic impressions,  
Vivid canvas depicted,
 
Scribble gesture aimed,
Daydreams; enthralled visuals,
Similes; eccentric pulsations,
 
Implications amid sessions,
Creator’s geniality composition,
Elegiac flair’s celebration.

Renga #3   breezes

day is dawning...
cool desert breeze
stirs the curtains

sunrise... breeze stills
all is quiet
song of harmony

morning... Earth warming
fresh sea breeze
wafts from shore...

Thanks to you, the FOUR-runners, who have populated the tricube base in my absence:

Jade-Pandora (Walk With Me)
souladareatease (Vine & Vigor)
Poetic_Strength (Poetry: Mystical Delineation)
Ely (Renga #3   breezes).

I'm glad to see the interest demonstrated here.

Even with only 3 days to go, I will NOT be extending the deadline, because I will not be available on Christmas Day or the margins on both sides.

That said, would you like me to open up the opportunity for a maximum of 3 entries per person?

It's your call!

Yours sincerely

Thanks for your response, J-P.
I find, anyway, that the rules cannot be modified once there have been responses.  We are locked in, as it were, except for extensions -- which are out of the question.

Yours sincerely

Thanks for responding, P_S.  We are locked into the rules, at any rate.  We will let things flow as they have been doing.
