Piku – Desire
by poetrydiary
wanting you
I
water flowers
flowers, wet,
bow,
embrace sunlight
sun lightening
skies,
casts new shadows
shadows touch
men
quietly wanting
wanting you
I
water flowers.

This is a ‘piku’ for Tilly Bud’s wewritepoems prompt. The form must be 3,1,4 syllable lines, using the digits from the mathematical constant pi (3.14159…). There may be more in that idea, I suspect.
Being vaguely mathematical (but only 9-5 Mon-Fri) I have made my piku go round in a circle, after a little prompting (see comments).
Lovely, but I want a chain of them!
I love the yearning in this. So few words, but so much is said. Fantastic.
Sorry (Viv) I didn’t read the brief properly! I have had another go (and I know I’m still ignoring the rhyming element, but here, at least, is a chain…..and because of the pi link, I thought we should make a circle.

You have bettered the best!
A real daisy chain. I love it.
Thanks Tilly – you are very kind.
Cool – I’ll have to try writing piku. Lovely chain!
