May your life have poetry and your poetry, life… #TLT – June 9
Three Line Thursday is BACK as a lovely addition to the blog here at Ink In Thirds. I would like to encourage you to spread the word and enter weekly.
Also, if you have a Twitter handle include it below your submission.
prompt word: flair
what
Write something that will move us! Inspired by the photo above. Post your poem in the comments and comment on others!
Let’s keep it about the words
- Brevity is Key
- 10 words MAX per line
- 3 Lines
- No Titles
- DO NOT include the prompt word
when
A new prompt will appear on the blog each Thursday at 12 am EDT.
where
Post your entries in the comment box of the current week's prompt post.
why
We are all about fostering healthy habits of creativity and connections.
What can you say, convey, express in only three lines? Can you paint a visual picture with only words? Tell an entire story that begs to be read? #TLT - June 9
Use your imagination. Poetry, Haiku, Senryū, Free Verse, Prose, Flash all are welcome. (Please no graphic use of excessive profanity or overtly disturbing mental images. Let’s use common sense.)
One word per line, fine. Ten words per line (max), fine. As long as it fits in the comment box in three-line format, it counts. Simple, right?
Read other entries and comment. This will be a positive forum for feedback!
love and ink,
grace black

and copper colours stencilled the sky,

One day you breathe the light
Easily into your lungs
The next you are drowning in shallow waters

words like petals and pellets
showering over hearts
Love the image, Firdaus, a chaos of beauty and noise, danger and love. Everything that writing should be!
Thank you 🙂
with some, you have to search it out,
a quiet flair, a deep and loving decency,
which gives with careless joy
Yikes – I’ve just remembered that we’re not supposed to use the prompt word. Sorry!
Oh! I had forgotten this too, Ewan!!
This is Lovely Ewan.
