Summer Days – Sidlak Poetry
What is a Sidlak Poem?
Sidlak Poetry is a structured poetry consisting of five lines with 3-5-7-9 syllables and a color. The last line must be a color that describes the whole poem or the feeling of the writer.
Summer days
Blue sky few white clouds
it’s time to be at the beach
Apply sun lotion so skin won’t burn
Bright red.
Please Note: After much searching I have revived this poem, realizing that the fifth line should be a color only, it does not matter how many syllables, just that it is a color, hope I’m right. If I’m not right will someone please correct me.
This is a new poem form to me. Your poem is a happy one, Elsie!
