Emptying my dishwasher, gazing through the window, a thought occurs beckoning me to follow its trail.
Lush and plush grass extends for miles, soon to disappear in a blanket of snow and slush.
Freeze this moment, green grass forever and perfect world – if only, impossible thought soon dead.
Lush and plush grass extends for miles, soon to disappear in a blanket of snow and slush.
Freeze this moment, green grass forever and perfect world – if only, impossible thought soon dead.

My line in the American Sentence attempt, part of the group poem
"Tempted to attempt my very first American sentence, curiosity conquers fear of mess-up."

Tell me if I got this right, please, not sure if I have understood the rules for what constitutes an American Sentence, but attempt I did. Comments, criticisms most welcome.

That dishwasher one is simply great!
I enjoyed reading these, I like the plush grass
I really like the dishwasher one too!
I enjoyed these a lot - I have similar thoughts when I look out on the green grass, soon to be snow covered.
I like how you captured those moments!
Snapshots of your life - I feel like I'm given a window into your world.
I like the way each thought carries through to the next one.
I think you've used the 'grass' prompt well. - not sure that the syllable's are right for an American Sentence - But love your poetry!
These are really good. I just learned about the American Sentence form from Becca at beccasbyline.blogspot.com - so I gave it a shot too.
