One Sentence Poems

[brettig]

Some of my favourites are these- probably because I'm not gifted enough to write poetry beyond that point

.

Here's mine:

Destiny
may
take
you
anywhere,
except
where
you
most

expect.

Simple I know, but its as close to profound as I get

.

Anyone else?

 

[The Wanderer]

If
you
sell
your
heart
out
be

to
get
a

Clever, Wanderer! Like yours, Brettig, and it's too true! Here's mine, it's called "Mutual disadmiration society":

I think
I shall kill
my computer;
my computer thinks
it shall kill
me.


(Can you tell what kind of day I'm having?!) lol


------------------
"And it's already gone too far..."

 

[scappy]

The sea-salted sand
shimmers
like a beach
filled with stars.

------------------
"And it's already gone too far..."

 

[scappy]

Why is no one contributing to this?! This should be fairly easy....easier than a full-fledged poem, at least.

------------------
"And it's already gone too far..."

 

[Diemen]

This just came to me - I think I might want to do more with it than one sentence, but:

Hers
Is a beauty
so breathless
It robs me
of mine.

[AllIWantIs]

wonder
is

wander

all
the
beauty
I
see
in
the
world

 

[Alisaura]

Of
Four thousand
Million years

His smile
rests lightly on my heart,
a feather-soft breath of warmth
to keep the chill of winter
away.


Well, I'll work harder on the next one!

Then you get to like the way it feels...
