Let me have my say, poetically, and maybe I'll try writing a ghazal
tomorrow. My understanding of that form is that it expresses the distilled
idea or emotion, i.e. has a haiku like quality, as well as implied or overt
teasing, and riddles may be included. But, for today:
It's snowing again.
I'm supposed to write a poem today.
My pen is poised
but I've no idea...What to say?
For discipline,
it's good for practice, this poem a day.
Helps wake the brain.
But my only thought is a refrain:
But, but, BUT...
(But WHAT?!)
