No Frog, No Sound

No Frog, No Sound

 

This poem is a shadow of

its former self, shedding syllables,

leaving a trail of letters behind

as

it

fades

Its feet leave no trace of rhythm

There are no stanzas left, no

couplets standing in the moonlight

It can no longer count to 5-7-5

All that remains is an old pond

Day 15 of PAD has us writing a shadow poem
