1153


Linking to Sunday Whirl Wordle #102

Early Retrospect

peak of dawn
twitterings
the staff of morning
heralds

early whistlers...
ixora berry
locks in a beak

the silence
of interludes...
a song grounded

awakening pit...
cloud puffs powders the face
of new day

a large moon...
the Easter vigil ended
petals in bouquets

exalt in alleluias...
for again the stone
is rolled away

as it is written...
love redeemmed a world
that was lost

and so
this calls
for celebration
lenten fast
past

A beautiful sequence, Gillena.

Would you explain the Wordles? What are the general guidelines and anything else a reader should look for? I see that the words come from the sequence.

if you click the hyperlink, it will take you to the 'Sunday Whirl' where these word scramble images called wordles are posted, the idea is to write a poem using the words given as a prompt; then you can use the linky tab at 'Sunday Whirl' to enter your poem post there, as well as red other rsponses to the prompt; its quite interesting

much love...
