Ok, new to the group, but seeing a group full of women who write poetry got me thinking.
My father used to be part of an online fourm, and one of the things they did would to be have like a 'haiku post" where the first person would post a haiku, and than the next person would take the last line of the first haiku and write another haiku with it.
It just seemed like something that would be fun.
I'll just post one to start and if you like the idea, than go for it.
Spring winds start to blow
After cold of winters' bite
New life starts to bloom
(For those who don't know haikus, its a three line poem. First line is 5 syllables, second is 7 syllabels and the third line is back to 5 again)

All is birthed anew
when pen is put to paper
the soul can fly free

OOPS ~ Forgot I had to use the last line of the previous - I changed it by a syllable though - feathers to wings . . .
New wings soon to fly
little ones will leave the nest
taking to the sky
Crystal :o)

Droplets fall from high
for the earth to quench her thirst
new flowers will bloom
for the earth to quench her thirst
new flowers will bloom

Quoting qwietpleez:Already used the word bloom . . .
Droplets fall from high
for the earth to quench her thirst
new flowers will bloom
Droplets fall from high
for the earth to quench her thirst
new life will take seed
Does that sound dumb?
