Much like me
The city looks quietly somber
Cheer up, beautiful!
Written for National Poetry Writing Month. 30 poems in 30 days. Today’s optional prompt is to write a lune. A lune is a sort of English-language variation on the haiku, meant to better render the tone of the Japanese haiku than the standard 5-7-5 format we all learned (and maybe loved) in elementary school. There are a couple of variants on the lune form, but just to keep things simple, let’s try the version developed by Jack Collum. His version of the lune involves a three-line stanza. The first line has three words. The second line has five, and the third line has three.
Game for some more lune? Hop on to:
