Monday's Quadrille #50 over at dversepoets and the word is "murmur"...using exactly 44 words.


Helicopter Seeds

Delayed by turbulent morning breeze,
whirled onto my front porch,
helicopter seeds.
I pondered what all falls from the folds of God
onto a mountain slope,
colors its face in radiant hope.
What voices murmur in forests' cradle,
but tender footsteps in soft ambiance.

    Beautiful. I feel the wonder of watching seeds fall gently into the ground.

    Have a great day, Kathy. :-)

    I liked the part about "falls from the folds of God" and the voices murmuring in the forest.

    Kathy, this is beautiful. I love the "tender footsteps" in the last line.
    I had to highlight the poem to be able to read it (for me, it shows up on your photo, and gets lost.) Wondering if others are having the same issue?

    I wish I could read your poem but the background image obscures the words.

    Tis an important question to ask and one which it seems , your poem seeks to answer.

    oh i love this - we used to play with them as kids - we glued them to our nose and played rhino - loving the forest cradle as well and the tender footsteps there in the close
