Words of Art

Friday, June 15th, 2007

words of artLines.
Meter.
A sonnet
or, a short verse.
Quite a feat, a task
is to master the art.
A true calling. A vision.
The mind’s ore, and a soul’s treasure.
Colorful words that paint a picture
is poetry to one who dares write it.

An Attempt at an Etheree form of poetry.
The Etheree, is said to be a form meant to focus on one idea or subject. It consists of ten lines of unrhymed and unmetered verse, the first verse having one syllable, each succeeding line adding a syllable, with the total syllable count being 55.

Said to be created by and named after Etheree Taylor Armstrong, an Arkansas poet.
