hour 8 poem

 

we need to follow

the footsteps

already there…

fresh snow this spring we need

to clean from the Apple

tree we need to Watch before we need to go again… We need a New house every season

hour 6 poem

cathedral walls

giving way to

the sunlight…

framing

a warm June afternoon

after a strong rain

with thunderstorm…

no more dust left

not even the fluff

from dandelions

next to the

crumbling walls…

from last year

no more raindrops

lying down

before my

footsteps

hour 5 poem

surface wind

over the lake

no willows

to bend over

before my

apprentice wizard

craft…

nature can also

do magic

at Hogwarts

hour 4 poem

sailing

over the moon…

the moon trembles

under his oars…

their boat

creates

a moon eclipse

before

the waterlily leaves…

 

hour 3 poem

fishing…

troubling

the moon…

after the swim

of a few fishes

creating an eclipse

a red-eared slider…

troubling the fishing rod

only the wind…

the fisherman wakes up

from dreamy reflections

 

hour 2 poem

after hours

of watching

a blooming magnolia…

after

good morning

wishes

soft moonlight

hour 1 poem

I use

no watercolours

this time…

weaving

a multicoloured

group

African fish

 

My introduction

Hello. Thank you very much for accepting me to join the Poetry Marathon! It is my first participation in such a challenge! I hope this challenge to help me gain more courage and stimulate me into being more creative! One poem per hour is a lot! I think it’s a great way to get someone started to writing poetry. I hope to make some good poems during the day.

I did study literature during my school and university days, yet I believe it was high time I started getting more creative and wrote my own poems.

One step I took into this direction was when I started writing haiku in August 2014.

I hope I get to know the other members as well as their creations during this challenge. Reading the others’ work and learning from them is as important as creating your own.

I am from Romania. I was born there in 1983. I graduated from the University of Bucharest where I studied English and French and now I am an English teacher at the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest.

With so much technology that we can use nowadays it is great we can join such challenges and groups where we can practice our creativity.

Thank you once again and good luck to all poets!
