Quake

Quiet fault lines wake up. Quivering earth rumbles, Quickly igniting fears; Qualms of disaster loom. Quality of buildings - Questionable if safe. Quest begins for relief. 7/28/19

This is a new way of writing poetry which is intriguing to me. Is this your own style, Kim? I like it!

Hi, Caren! The form is called Pleiades and I discovered it on line. Basically it has a one word title followed by seven lines describing or showing the meaning of the title. Each line must start with the first letter of the title and is 6 syllables long. Before my "break" I was holding contests with this form using each letter of the alphabet. I think I stopped with N.
