Eleven Words - One Poem: Elfchen

[Me Myself and I]

Water
Cristal clear
my life is yet
to be

 

[digger]

Quick reminder of how Elfchen is played for newer posters

an "Elfchen" is a poem of exactly eleven words (so: a "Little Eleven" :) ). The first line consists of one word only, the second line of two words only, the third line of three words only, the fourth line of four words only and the fifth line of one word only.

the next person would use the last word of the previous poem as the first word of their own new eleven-word poem:

 

[digger]

Be
The best
You can be
You can't be much
Better

 

[Me Myself and I]

Better
a life
lived for yourself
than one lived for
others

 

[Lola Nocheprieta]

Others
Can be
Good or bad
You must be willing
Risk

 

[Me Myself and I]

Risk
Never to
Be feared for
It can open new
Doors

 

[digger]

Doors
Locked, bolted
Barricaded, boarded up.
Still they get through.
How?

How?
Determination, strength
Or workmen's tools
I wish I had
Wings

 

[Me Myself and I]

How
Can they
Fear diversity when
We all are totally
Diverse

How?
//
Wings

oops sorry my comment took a while to load. That's why I started with the word How. sorry! :confused:

It's ok ;)

 

[digger]

Wings
Of Diverse
Birds, many feathers
Flocked together as one
Flight

 

[jaccat]

Flight
At night
In deep darkness
Little owl, dark eyed
Predator.
