Poetry
On a cold March morning after a lovely almost spring day the previous day I saw winter sputtering out and came up with this. It also works as a tanka - a 5-line poem with lines of 5, 7, 5, 5, and 5 syllables. Here’s the tanka version:
Winter sputters out
A car running out of gas
On an ugly night
Trying to reach home.
Just one more mile please
