A Word Sonnet Everyone Can Write


Everyone who posts on Twitter or Facebook can write a poem.
My wish is that people come to a better understanding of poetry as a result of my book. Here is an easy structure: A non-ryming word sonnet. 14 words, one per line. 
Write one now and post it in the comments. It doesn't have to be what you consider to be good. The requirements are that you write it.

The
tinkle
of
laughter
cascades
upon
smooth
stones,
weathered
by
the
river's
tenacious
delight.

The
day
doesn't
end
when
a
pig
flies,
but
when
he
is
slaughtered.

Don't
abandon
a
perfect,
loving
God
based
on
the
horrid
acts
of
imperfect
people.
