As darkness raced
across the land
blue skies replaced
by a black band
the stars awoke
being bespoke
to light the night

A Ha'Sonnet Will Do
As darkness raced
across the land
blue skies replaced
by a black band
the stars awoke
being bespoke
to light the night

The fog rolled in
on a slight breeze
shushing the din
hiding the trees
Shrinking our world
as lights were pearled
and night glowed white

Technically this is not a ha’sonnet because it does not meet the requirement to have a volta or twist. However, in the spirit of those who write three line pieces with lines of five, seven and five syllables and call them haikus even though they don’t meet any other requirement for a haiku, I’m posting this on my ha’sonnet site. 🙂
The quiet of
the evening
just got a shove
by those that sing
a love chorus
that’s not for us
Jeepers! Peepers!
