Imagist/Minimalist poetry awakens our senses.
I invite you to write a short poem, using as few words as possible to describe a smell, a sound, or a taste. William Carlos Williams’ Red Wheelbarrow is a good example.
the mouth of now
warmth,
like honey dew drops
drinking the sun
and swallowing a fresh taste
of tomorrow.
sweet nectar
sugar nests
beneath my tongue.
