High Tide

According to Uma, poet extraordinaire at Inside My Poem Book, 

 

Palindromes are words or phrases that reads the same in both directions (forward and backward). Examples : LEVEL,MADAM, RACECAR etc.Similarly a Palindrome poetry is the one which uses the beauty of Palindrome in Poetry.

There are three different ways to write Palindrome poems,namely

1. Word Palindrome :- It can be read backwards, with the same words
2. Mirrored Palindrome :-Here the words are reads the same forwards and backwards by letter and it is more difficult to write one
3. Line Palindrome  :- in which the individual lines of a text make a palindromic sequence ,that is, which reads forwards and backwards, by lines.

Uma's Poetry Challenge is to write a Palindrome Poem. Yeesh! Here's mine:

High Tide

Stroking the sand to velvet smoothness

Ocean waters rise

Sun worshippers pull back blankets

Drying wet toes
