My blogger-poet-friend Ingrid inspired me to create a Twitter account and start writing #APoemADay, which I began on January 1, 2021.
This week, I posted a series of brevettes, which are only 3 words long. Since they are so short, I decided not to publish them as individual posts here on WordPress – it felt too weird… so I am sharing them on the Skeptic’s Kaddish now as a full series.
I hope you enjoy this week’s brevettes!
Shabbat Shalom from Jerusalem,
David
Short and sweet. Full of meaning. 🙂

These are very cleaver. Good luck with Twitter. It is easier for me to make my self familiar with Twitter than it is in Instagram, I am still learning to navigate. I enjoyed your wee poems, all wise. Thanks for sharing them David. Have a blessed Sabbath. Love Joni
💞 Thanks, Joni 💞
P.S. Shabbat ended some hours ago when the sun set on Saturday night 😉
I really like these. Every one, but especially wizard casts shadow. I’ve done a haiku form that is one word, 2 words, 3 words and I like that a lot too. (K)
😁 Kerfe, thanks 😁
Could you explain how haikus work in English to me? Cuz I don’t really understand the rules. I know the basic form, but apparently it could be anything less than that too?
-David
There are all kinds of different rules and variations. Unless someone is strict in their preferences, I think any short 3 line poem will do. Or one line even–Ken is good at those.
Delightful
Delicious

To steal a commercial phrasing. Thanks for sharing David.

These are clever! When it’s only 3 words, you have to choose them carefully, which you did 🤩
Awww… Thanks, Ingrid! ❤
Shabbat shalom,
David
Always enjoy your work, David. The life and time poems are especially powerful.
Thank you so much, Lucy 🥰
