Violet Roses – A Whitney


violet
roses bloom in
teak gardens
golden wind chimes
sway in breeze
warm summer sun
illuminates morning sky

Hi Lisa,

Another lovely form, new to us here. Great work.

For anyone curious about a Whitney:


Created by Betty Ann Whitney, this seven-line verse based on Japanese patterns contains 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 7 syllables respectively.

Anybody else want to give it a try?

many thanks Brigid
