yuletide poetryspam
Dec. 18th, 2010 01:27 pmWriting yuletide today. I've got nearly a thousand words now, and I suspect this story's not going to get much longer. Due to various rl constraints, I've had to abandon my usual yuletide practice of producing huge sprawly ambitious work and go for small-but-lovely as a goal instead. Not reaching for more words, just trying to make the ones I've got as pleasurable as possible.
So have a poem:
Silent Poem
~Robert Francis
backroad leafmold stonewall chipmunk
underbrush grapevine woodchuck shadblow
woodsmoke cowbarn honeysuckle woodpile
sawhorse bucksaw outhouse wellsweep
backdoor flagstone bulkhead buttermilk
candlestick ragrug firedog brownbread
hilltop outcrop cowbell buttercup
whetstone thunderstorm pitchfork steeplebush
gristmill millstone cornmeal waterwheel
watercress buckwheat firefly jewelweed
gravestone groundpine windbreak bedrock
weathercock snowfall starlight cockcrow
