THE WHISPERS OF AUTUMN
Let your poetic soul listen….and savor the whispers of fall
And tell us about them
Write what I call a “Lawless” Sonnet
Break a few rules, stretch a few limits, mug a reluctant metaphor, apprehend an escaping alliteration
//I tend to judge aka evaluateon a combination of whimand fancy. Poetic devices, a gottcha line,,you know that one that make you stop and sigh or grunt and rush to read further,//
---Should you be arrested by the Poetic Police don't call me for bail money---
Shakespeare be damned...HAVE SOME FUN.....
