Blank verse, unrhymed, non-anyone&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sonnet\" target=\"_blank\">sonnet<\/a> style but within the general format. It seems to be, like haiku, perfect length and presentation for many ideas. I enjoy having an idea and making it fit as best I can. (see also <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sonnet#Modern_sonnet\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"fourteen lines, one word each\">word sonnet<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>A few days, I&#8217;ve gone back and re-read and thought &#8211; hmmm I like this. Some days, I&#8217;ve gone into the text file and made some notes or some corrections or changes. <\/p>\n<p>Recently I started cross-posting from here to my <a href=\"http:\/\/mbquilts.wordpress.com\" target=\"_blank\">wordpress.com site<\/a> which I&#8217;d only had for answering other people&#8217;s questions about wordpress dot com blogging. What the heck, why not let these posts show up over there? It&#8217;s easier for people to follow blogs there and get emails about new posts. It&#8217;s an interesting notion since there&#8217;s no reflection in stats to show that interest, but there&#8217;s often notice to me of a &#8220;like&#8221; from one of these readers.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m glad to have new readers! Welcome and I hope you leave with a smile or having had a thoughtful moment. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>This year I&#8217;m really feeling ready or more ready to share and discuss my poems with other people. Guess I&#8217;ll have to look into that at some point.<\/p>\n<p>Onward and upwards for the last twelve days of April!
