Challenge
Imagist/Minimalist poetry awakens our senses.
I invite you to write a short poem, using as few words as possible to describe a smell, a sound, or a taste. William Carlos Williams’ Red Wheelbarrow is a good example.
Woodsmoke
I dreamed
the moon through
my window,
light, like the first snow,
like woodsmoke
in the rafters,
my mother's laughter
tickling my toes.
