Poem for Spring writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
Write a poem for spring. You can not use the words: flower, buds, blossoms, rain, new.


web search: A simpler, "free-style" version of haiku is called the lune. A lune can be about absolutely anything. The writer of a lune does not have to count syllables. The first line in a lune is three words, the second line is 5 words, and the third line is 3 words.

My personal concoction or amalgam of 5-7-5 syllable Haiku and 3-5-3 word Lune by Jack Collom is named 'Hailu.
