FreeVerse: Spring Kitten
Cara has thrown down the gauntlet for FreeVerse this week.
Coinciding with Serena’s National Poetry Month Tour, she’s having a giveaway for a book she recently reviewed with strong poetry ties (Under Heaven by Guy Gavriel Kay).
To enter, you must write a short poem.
Brevity is not my forté. While it’s only three stanzas, it started out as a haiku. So there you go.
“Spring Kitten” by J.T. Oldfield
my kitty sits at the door,
meow meow through the glass.
windy spring
drip drips in
when I check the mail.
a clanging next door
kitty runs and hides.

Whoot! Cool that you wrote you’re own poem. It fits my criteria for the contest. Care to enter?
I like this!!
It is better than anything I could do … who doesn’t like a poem about a kitty?
