The Legacy of a June Wedding

by Y. M. Roger


Marriage
 
favors June’s days –

Days that make manifest

the fulfillment of Spring’s re-birth –

Birth  that  is  the  realization  of

Winter’s promise: that life shall persist –

Persist through the love that binds

two hearts with desire –

Desire  to

June 'Even the Odds' Poem writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
What does the month of June mean to you? There are a number of very important dates within this month...and it's the first month of summer vacation...and it's halfway through the calendar year...anything! :) Just come up with something 'June' that you can write about in your June 'Even-the-Odds' Poem!

As a reminder, the 'Even-the-Odds' poetry format has a syllable count of 2-4-6-8-10-9-7-5-3-1 [starts out with evens and finishes with odds]
The first line (two syllables) and the last line (one syllable) are essentially synonyms
There is no rhyme requirement, although it isn't discouraged.
An example is included at the end of this announcement although REMEMBER TO CENTER your text [very loosely resembling a diamond-shape]

So, join in and tell us all about what June means to you! Make us smile! Make us sob! Make us annoyed! But - and here's the important part - make us want to vote for yours! We look forward to reading yours! ;) :)

Evening Performance
By Y. M. Roger

Fairies
Flit through the air
Chromatic symphony
Of effulgent streaks and glitter
Performing ?neath where the trees meet the stars
Tonight, the crickets and frogs join in
Enhancing the vibrant show
You?ll never forget
Dancing with
Sprites!


Interesting how the cycles of the seasons are reflected in our human rituals ... or is it that we model our rituals from the cycle of life of the world in which we live? Hmmmm...
