a misted bridge forms
across the water–
our voices dance
as if they were winged
across the water
we float airborne
touching the sky
our voices dance
uncontained
scattering the light
as if we were winged
needing no reason
playing with life itself

For dVerse, where Lisa asks us to play. Also inspired by the photo, above, by Terri Webster Schrandt, provided by Colleen for this week’s Tanka Tuesday. I’ve written another trimeric poem.

So lovely 🤍

I like how you characterize the white on the artwork and do see it mirrors the photo. Very nice bridge.

Your poem gave me the nostalgic feeling of laying in the grass watching clouds, imagining that I am floating away with them on the wind.

Lovely trimeric! I think they work best the way you’ve formed this one, short, imagist lines that flow into one another.

Thanks Jane. This was originally much more wordy, but you’re right, trimming it down made it better.

It might be because I at least notice the refrain line when the poem is very spare. More words can have the effect of hiding it.

I agree about the short lines in the trimeric. There’s a lovely flow to this that fits the landscape and message.
