CHILD ART
Chalked daffodils on pavement stone
cut vapour trails where planes have flown.
GARDEN COUTURE
Four tiny roses opened this last week -
winter's rags are touched with chic!
SEASONAL CHEER
A Father Christmas out of time
remonstrates with children for some crime.
RING IN THE NEW
Church bells ringing loud and clear...
could we but practice for the whole new year...
to all good soul's who've not,
a sparkling New Year's Eve and Day.
For twenty-twelve a brilliant lot
to you and all those dear.
That's it for now, see you next year!

Ring in the New...does it for me.
See ya next year!
Oh, Dave, I think you did a good job with them I particularly love the daffodils and the roses.
You rose to the challenge with your usual panache - well done:-)
I like the couplet poems specially the garden couture.
Thanks for sharing your awesome poems and writings as I marvel at your craft. Wishing you Happy New Year !
Cheers ~

What a nice present for the New Year's Eve. I enjoyed these verses a lot. Thank you very much.
I agree with Brian that the first one really steals the show, though they are all well-done.
Have a very brilliant lot yourself next year! (The brilliance is sort of assured.)
Take care, k.
Ahh... now this is how Crystallines should be done... beautiful, Dave! And of course kids and chalk will always get me.
Happy New Year to you, too.
Y'know Dave - sometimes your poetry makes me swear with the genious of it!
I just did that with the beautiful simplicity of Child Art!
Have a wonderful New Year!
Anna :o]
You have nailed the form, Dave!
Have a wonderful New Year!
I'd hate to have to choose my favourite of these, they're all so good!
How I admire your talent :)
Here's hoping 2012 is your best ever year!
What intriguing fun. Never heard of these and wonder how they got hte name. You seem to do the exercise well. Perhaps one days I will try this.
Dave,
Loved your crystallines! Thank you for the New Year's wishes. I wish you the best for 2012 as well.
perfect rhyming and story telling, well done.
Great in particular RING IN THE NEW.
"Let's practise
yes"
Happy New Year
Loved them all. Thank you for the brilliant crystallines shining for us all. What great use of the pivot (kireji) in all. This is definitely well achieved! Thanks for the New Year Wishes and for linking. Hope your year is filled with more inspiration! Gay
Tremendously fantastic! Happy New Year to you Dave xxx
Very interesting indeed i may attempt to write a crystalline in the future. Let me get this right a crystalline is a poem with 17 syllables combined in two lines with a sound harmony is this correct?? :-).
A delightful form skillfully handled! A very happy New Year to you & yours.
i like how the roses make the rags look like nice clothes.
Yes...I hope to follow you more closely next year.
