Penta-Cinquains ~ Seasons

~~~
Summer
Hot sultry
Scorching burning de-hydrating
Breeze rustles the leaves
Sunny

Rain
Fresh 
Drizzling Refreshing invigorating  
Freshness in the leaves
Monsoon

Autumn
Bereft dull
Crumpling fading descending
Break off, the leaves
Fall 

Winter
Harsh cold
Snowing chilling  
Blizzard burying leaves
Frost 

Spring
Colourful beautiful
Blooming blossoming flowering
Green are all the leaves
Vernal
~~~

Open Ended Poetry Contests

Please give us a topic, at least just a clue
I have no direction, don't know what to do
Do I scribe what I know, or write from the heart?
Or do I quote Shakespeare and try to sound smart?
A ballad, a sonnet, a three line haiku?
Or try to be clever, and try a senryu
Perhaps using penta, and maybe i-ambic?
Dactylic or pyrric, it's sending me manic
So next time a subject, please tell us ahead
And I'll write something different to be a blockhead

If Not Now

Garlands draped and strung. 
White creeper blossoms
 reminiscent of  snow
penta-hedron, vase shaped, 
 single bells.  Five sepal-ed,
 finial, fillistered,
 flower bowls. 
Such delicate geometry
 predestined from a seed 

Destiny, fate and duty
will always mock one another.
Power struggles between courage
and cowardice, rest in the lap of higher powers.
Increments, irrelevant to atoms.

All that will unfold 
is manifest in flowers.
