leafy ballet

wind blows
leaves dance
like ballerinas across the grassy lawn
dressed in red, orange, and yellow
tutus flutter
in rhythm
with nature

here’s another Trinet using word count

last dance

The prompt for OctPoWriMo today is “dancing” and, over at B&P Shadorma and Beyond, Bastet has challenged us to write a Trinet ( 7 lines, non-rhyming, with a 2, 2, 6, 6, 2, 2, 2 syllable count)

——-

dancing
alone
as the wind brushes past
holding tight to the branch
last leaf
on the
maple
