A study in squares
Four by four
They go
Ho ho ho ho
Books on a frosty morn
As I proceed to my pond
Scribbles over the aircon
It looks a bit forlorn
Ho ho ho ho
The tiny legs made
Me giggle though
This is a Quadrille written for the dVerse poetry prompt. A Quadrille is a poem of 44 words (not counting the title) and this week’s prompt was to write one that included the word ‘giggle’. Right after I read the prompt, I happened to look back on the four photos I took today, which were, randomly, all squares. 4×4 and 44 lines – it seemed too perfect!
What a fun piece! I love your photos, too. Thanks so much for sharing with us!
Thankyou! 🙂
Ha.. love this … fits so well with the images.
Thankyou!
I liked those tiny legs. I wonder what happened to the top part. I see you have these roadside libraries where people can exchange books in your first photo.
Indeed. Although I think they’re probably all in German 🙂
I love the tiny legs too. I wonder where she had been going before the ‘accident’ happened…
Kind regards
Anna :o]
Looks like she was off to a party. Or perhaps partied too hard 😉
Nice way you fitted your photos to the prompt.
Some things are just meant to be…
Lovely poem and photos . By the way , it is nice to see you again Claire on WordPress❤
The legs made me giggle too
You had me giggling too..
I, too, love those tiny legs. Haha made me giggle 😁
Smiling here ~ Serendipity is at work ~ Thanks for joining us ~
Giggle is such a giggle-worthy word 😁😁 Great job.
I haven’t heard of a Quadrille – 44 words will have to try this out – great piece, made me smile Claire.
Nice to do something lighthearted for once ! 😉
Oh yeah I don’t know if this happens to you but I get bogged in melancholic mutterings at time then suddenly thing oh for goodness sake lighten up!
Totally!
Oh this is just lovely!!
Thankyou for reading 🙂
Fun poem. I love how language and in particular poetry change the way we see our surroundings.
What a perfect coincidence of creativity…squares and giggles. I enjoyed this 🙂
Perfect bland, that is one quirky quadrille!
Gosh, I meant blend, not bland. Sorry for that. 🙂
Lol. Thanks
You might enjoy a book I have, by Slinkachu “Little People in the Big City”
Lovely poem too!
We have that too! 🙂
ha ha ha, that is fun. I’d never heard of this type of structure but I like the fun you had with it. And yep, the little legs going somewhere 😉 love it.
Great job! I had to zoom in on the pic to see the “tiny legs”! 🙂
This is very interesting and funny! Thanks for sharing 🙂
