Thanks, Andrea; The form is called a brevette 3 lines with word each = noun, verb (spaces in the spelling) and noun. Nice brevity. I was defining a picture (ekphrasis). I HAD to add a bit of alliteration.

thanks, Paula, it was a fun form with which to work...The teacher in me still looks to experiment with words and see what they can do. I appreciate your comment.
