Blog Posted by Nette Onclaud: 6/28/2012 9:22:00 PM

fine day to all fun soupers!...…here’s another adventure i want to share with you!...create a NEW, ORIGINAL POEM on the theme, WONDER OF CONSTELLATIONS.. PICK ONLY ONE CONSTELLATION FROM THE LIST as YOUR MAIN SUBJECT...

1)Andromeda, 2) Centaurus, 3) Orion, or 4)Pegasus…

imagery, fluidity and creative mood are great kickers! please avoid telling, feel your poem!

the form we will use is the Pensee: a 5-line , non-rhyming poetic form depicting a thought or reflection written in such manner: 2/4/7/8/6/syl counts…

Subject (2 syllables)

Description of Subject (4 syllables)

Action (7 syllables)

Setting (8 syllables)

Final Thought (6 syllables)

my example:

night view

meshed dome golden

flushing threads of satin crepe

damp benches outline line dusky park

as lovers taste moon kisses

check details on the contest page!!.. come and travel in space and have a galactic moment!...

hugggs and love to all!
