“Syllables govern the world.”--John Seldon
A simple pleasure
composing one good line
and counting
Not always
you can get the words
to fall just right
Summer heat
writing three good lines,
only three
This thought:
how many different ways
to express it?
What of
the sounds in these lines,
their meaning?
Looks easy
when the final syllables
just jell
