NaPoWriMo Day 9 - Remember Then

 

How can we be in our seventies?
Remember our twentieth year?
San Francisco - the first time
at Haight & Ashbury
park's sunny day, a
carousel where
we inhaled -
then

                                    * * * * *

Oh this #NaPoWriMo!
What a challenge!
Initially, I have fear of failure and think "I can't do THAT. I don't want to be forced to follow rules!"

Later, I calm down, smile, and think "Well, I'll give it a try."

Today is write in a specific form - the nonet!

A nonet has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second has eight, and so on until you get to the last line, which has just one syllable.

While reading others' posts I discovered that member *Bill Reynolds wrote one in reverse.
I couldn't resist....

go
let's go
a road trip
calls both our names -
a quest for gardens
and historical sites
with new sights sounds and people
that bring colorful adventures
into our current lockdown life style
