Hey, this is thought-provoking, and I loved the way you have captured the cyclic, invisible, yet powerful nature of the wind. Even though it is there, it's only seen through its effects, not in its essence, so to speak. This is precious, I enjoyed thinking about it, and I'm so happy to give it a sixer, cheers, and hope life's smiling on you today, love, Ana. :)

Good topic and syllable count for this well written, nicely presented 1-7-1 contest entry.
The unyielding, never-ending cycle of life. Where would we be without it?

Hello Anon
Well done with this piece - it must be very difficult to write in this format and to create meaning too.
A clever piece of writing: I wish you well in your contest: it is a tough one!
cheers

Interesting way of writing a poem. Picture and the words really stand out. Good luck in the contest. Flow of words makes it an easy read. Since it is four lines I hope that it will still count.

You've done well for this limited contest of 1-7-1 syllables
and your repeated word "wind" has a nice effect
in the poem.
Excellent photograph to match the words
Well done
Good luck in the voting

Tis a lovely 1-7-1 and I must admit to really finding something of worth in this form.

Wind and the acorn set a pensive tone.

Just one point is that the last word must repeat the first word.

Excellent post and I wish you luck in the contest.

Gloria

This is a great 1-7-1; but I would mention that the prompt states that line three must be the same word as line one. Just sayin. I wish you well in the contest.

An interesting interpretation of the acorn/tree narrative -- your displaced wording does a good job of portraying the oddity yet the connection in your words. :) :) I would point out, however, that the first and the last lines are supposed to be exactly the same....

Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest! :)
