Lin Lane Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Trimeric Contest by Janice Canerdy ~ September 1, 2024

Dawn's First Blush-TRI

The world still sleeps at dawn's first blush
when trilling birds tickle my ear.
I welcome the dirge of a thrush 
as sunlight's tepid breath draws near.

When trilling birds tickle my ear
and morning skies are pastel pink,
I dip my feathered quill in ink.

I welcome the dirge of a thrush
helping his mate to build a nest.
It's the time of day I like best.

As sunlight's tepid breath draws near,
I've written a verse of Haiku 
of rose petals dripping with dew.
