One Minute …

Hello Poetry Lovers

We’re on my favourite theme of the one minute poem, and lovely poet Trisha Broomfield has penned a very seasonal and relevant one indeed.

Thank you so much for this, Trisha.

This lovely poetry form can be quite addictive, and fun. Let me remind you again of the rules; 60 syllables, 3 stanzas and the first line has to have 8 syllables. Then it’s AABB

Halloween and the clocks go back,

Evenings are black
Snuggle each night
Turn on the light

Let’s eat baked spuds and pumpkin pie,
Prepare the Guy 
It’s fireworks soon
Up to the moon

Best sausages and hot baked spuds, 
Snowdrops are buds 
Daffodils too
Hiding in dew

Before too long the sound of spring
First, Carol sing
Release the old
Safe from the cold.

Wasn’t that beautiful?! Thank you so much, Trisha. Wonderful words, and I want to see more.

Thanks for tuning in, PL’s. We’ll be back with more poetry japes real soon…
