5/7/5 Springtime Trio
Spring's Hourglass by zanya
5-7-5 Springtime Trio writing prompt entry

A blaze of floral
multi-colors spreads beneath
chilly winter feet

High up in swaying
treetops squawks 'n tweets bestir
muted inner ears

Alas, sands of Spring's
newly-filled hourglass run out
in too short a time


Writing Prompt
Write a 'chain' of THREE 5-7-5 poems that address three different aspects of the budding Spring season. They can be three things that are linked by a common 'thread' or they can be totally unrelated items that only have 'Springtime' in common. No other requirements except that each of your 'stanzas' (each 5-7-5) must follow the format of:

first line - 5 syllables
second line - 7 syllables
third line - 5 syllables

Have fun! Be creative! Be colorful! But most of all, make us want to vote for yours! :) ;)
