Poet’s Corner invited us
Today to try writing Dalit:
Four-line Filipino poem –
Depends how you pronounce your words!
Each line has eight syllables.
His smile is so captivating.
He exudes love in his long life.
Look deeply into his sweet eyes –
Let his wonderful smile melt you.

Looks like you’ve nailed it.
Did you try it?
No – still working on today’s post, which will take me some time 🙂
I ❤️ reading your posts and seeing your beautiful garden and countryside and hearing about last night’s dinner and drinks of choice! Thank you so much for sharing your life with us WP friends, {{{Derrick}}} 👍🏽❤️

I’m not a poet but here’s my attempt:
Your face glows like red roses.
That sit on a red runner.
They match your lips and red shirt.
Lifts spirits and warms my heart. 🥰🌹
There must be a name for the four-line verse that has seven syllables on each line. I think it’s a “septet” or something like that. Your verse is beautiful, dear {{{Laina}}}. You ARE a poet!
Jan, thanks for the challenge. Here you go!
Big Montana Sky blesses us
