A Minichu on Flowering Poetry Contest

Sponsor- Mohan Chuthani


 

Let's Minichu on Flowering

I have a lovely yard
where bright balsams in long pots neatly grow in row.
It's my pride

They grow in shade.
I enjoy the beautiful sight
May fade. 

I love,
looking at it.
Wow

I have a lovely yard.
I enjoy the beautiful sight.
Wow!

Lovely attempt. Few suggestions for your consideration to fulfill format requirement. I have a lovely yard where balsams in long pots neatly grow in row bright It's my bard They grow in shade. I enjoy the beautiful sight May fade. I love, them gryte. Jove! I have a lovely yard. I enjoy the beautiful sight. Jove! I have not checked for syllable count again. That can also be done. So. In this form, after 2-3 iterations, one does get a nice minichu. Hope this will help. My best wishes. Mohan.

Nice to view balsams in a nice weather. I love gardens, specially in Kerala in India. Spectacular views all over.

I, also, enjoy the beauty of vinca, but boy their scent is not lovely, and one benefit of their unpleasant scent is the deer don't like them. Thank you for sharing this one with us, Valsa. Way to go. Sara K
