CD : LO 11 : Tilus

Tilus [tee-loo-hz] is a form created by Kelvin S.M. and falls under the category of micro poetry. The form is divided into two parts: the first part is composed of two lines following a 6-3 syllable
count; the second part, a one-syllable word to close and/or complete the subject layered in the first part.


1.
owlet in daylight
came to me
who?
2.
yellow finch feeds squirrel;
waits below
branch.
3. 
frog on the bank, jumps in
seeing me                                

there.

    Serene touches of beautiful observation. I especially like your 3rd tilus. Thank you for trying your hand at this form, I truly appreciate. Smiles.

    Interesting form - even barer and more minimal than a haiku. I think number 1 is particularly charming, but I like all six that you've done :)
