kbnelson’s Reason 2 Rhyme Poetry Prompt – “Postcard Poem” August 6, 2012
Write a poem in the disguise of a postcard message. Continue by writing a reply postcard message.
Postcards from the Heart
Still in town.
I needed time to think.
Dropped this down
The chute. Had me a drink.
I need space.
I never did intend
To embrace
A love that would extend
As far as we have gone.
I need this time alone.
As close as PO Box 1378
***********************
Take it. I
Completely understand.
How and why
Are questions that command
Time and thought
Without the two, we could
Come to naught
And with the two we should
Gracefully comprehend
The next step or the end.
You know where I am.

That was thought-provoking. I like the abbreviated style of this one.
Thanks for dropping the lines. I got your note in my PO Box.
I enjoyed working the meter on this one.
also left a note on yours site. Lots of fun.
The meter here is hypnotic. Love, love, love the way you broke the lines and brought attention to the actual postcard. Outstanding!
