Us

So nobody left me any suggestions for a poetry form.  :(  I even gave you guys an extra day!  But o well, I went through the list, and decided on a Nonet - a 9-line poem, where the first line has 9 syllables, second line has 8 syllables, and so on.  
Lying beside the lilac bushes,
she looked like she was just sleeping.
It was beautiful, almost,
with the grass still growing -
everything's okay.
Nothing's changing,
And always,
we'll be:
Us.  
I know that was pretty bad...  The syllables were giving me trouble.  Also, my best friend Mary just made a blog.  Definitely check it out - I promise, it's full of awesomeness!

  1. Whoa what a cool style of poetry! I really like the ending, sometimes I write like that too. You can say so much with a single word, with two letters event. Delicious :)
