Porte
Je tape
Je suis arrivée
Quelqu'un ouvre la porte
Cœur


(poem by Françoise et Maria, picture taken by Maria in Paris, Montmartre)




The structure of this poem is called "Elfchen" in German, "Eleven-Words-Poem" in English. Those eleven words are arranged like this:

*
* *
* * *
* * * *
*

With the last word one can try to give a new insight to the reader, it's good to choose a word that rounds out what was said before but which also leads into a slightly new direction.

More of these ideas about how to arrange lines of poetry can be found at the side-bar here with the title: 
Do-it-yourself:Poetry!
It's fun!
