Ok, I got a little bit backlogged over the weekend, and just getting back to the poems now. A small one for April 7, a sevenling as prompted by PAD Challenge Day 7.
That’s over at the Writer’s Digest site. I’d not heard of the form before, and while mine has 7 lines, I am not entirely sure I caught the essence of the form here.
Just Desserts
He needed space just for him
no near neighbours
the occasional kiss.
She gave him the boot,
no visitors,
the kiss-off.
He was wrong about what he needed.
