Emuhlee: It's a haiku, an extremely concise and expressive form of poetry. It's often used by nature writers and people who know what they want to say.



You've already succeeded, Em M. You currently have 3 poems on the front page of most popular RAW poems. I just want to say, "congratulations and how do the rest of us get there?"

With that said, why don't you try for four or maybe five poems on the front page?

I dont know if I can consider this a poem? More like a quote. But unique.
