The nature of things...















dversepoets.com
Kelvin and Victoria have introduced his own poetry form,  Tilus, (macro poetry) which is divided into two parts: the first part is composed of two lines following a 6-3 syllable count; the second part, a one-syllable word to close and/or complete the subject layered in the first part NS must contain 10 in overall syllable count. The main focus is the world of nature but I added a couple of fun ones as well.  My contributions:




Eagle overhead, wish

 I could "swoosh!",

 too










Secluded in hedges,
grape swallow -

 safe








Ubiquitous poems
of moonlight -

 love




Green solar collector
spongy cells -

 fronds










T'was an open and shut 
case of clams -

 steamed

    Did enjoy the levity you found within the robes of nature. Tilus 3 seemed to wax most poetic for me. Your poetics seem well suited to this form of micro poetry; thanks for sharing.

    You had fun with these, didn't you - great matching of words to pictures, and a nice light feel to the whole set.

    Matching words and photos was a great idea, Katy. The first and third ones are the ones I like best., especially the swoosh sound.

    The last piece broke the seriousness of the tone of the previous pieces. Thanks for that surprise. :-) :-)
