Well! It’s been a minute, and I apologize! Not sure what happened other than life :). I’ve gone through all of your messages, and I hear you. Yes, I am in a little spurt of writing Elfchens. Which is a German form of poetry also known as “Elevenie” . As the name indicates the entire poem consists of eleven words in a certain form.
The 1st line of the poem has 1 word. The 2nd line has 2 words, the 3rd line has 3 words, the 4th line has 4 words, and the 5th line, has 1 word.
The first word is the topic, and the last word summarizes it.
So here are a few examples for you:
Warmth
Burning skin
Long for it’s
Touch upon my soul
Happiness
Him
My heart
Stapled for eternity
Longing for such peace
Never
Sprinkler
Glistening drops
My visual pleasure
The sound of music
Spray
So you get the idea. Thanks for showing the interest, and feel free to send them my way if you give it a try :)
Keep safe, happy, and healthy,
Love to you all, always.
