April is National Poetry Month. While I am not much of a poet, as a lover of words I feel compelled to participate. One of the simplest forms of poetry is the haiku. A haiku is a poem that consists of three lines. The first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the third line has 5 syllables. Generally, a haiku is about nature.
This morning as I was running in the park, I saw an entire colony of spider webs which inspired my first haiku for NaPoMo:
Diamond dew drops hang
Like tiny gems strung on silk
Capturing the sun
Beautiful...the haiku and the picture.
