Come Softly: Dectina Refrain & Haiku
Written for Jimโs Thursday Inspiration #231 –
โCome Softly To Meโ. Here is my piece,
a Dectina Refrain followed by a haiku.

Do
You hear
Me tapping
On your window
Come softly darling
Sit right here beside me
Kiss my trembling fingertips
Take me in your arms and hold me
Tell me you will never let me go
Do you hear me tapping on your window
A petal soft kiss
Fluttering cherry blossoms
Loveโs gentle breezes

2ndย line is 2 syllables,
3rdย line is 3 syllables, and so on for 9 lines;
the 10thย line is comprised of the first four lines
and written as one stand-alone line.
