This Is A Drabble
Just A Hundred Words
But Less Syllables
Is That Absurd

When Written Like This
The Form Is Harder
Is Something Amiss
Should It Be Shorter?

When Every Line Is
Just Five Syllables
In Quatrain Verses
Of Unmarked Scrabble

There Is No Story
Just A Hundred Words
All Without Glory
Totally Absurd

So, How Many Lines
Will This Poem Be
When We Reach The End
We Will No Doubt See

Just A Hundred Words
That Is All I Need
Success Is Inferred
So That You Can Read

Here's The Last Two Lines
This Worked Out Just Fine

Whoaaaa, you made it rhyme sooo well! I loved it!
I never thought about writing a Drabble in a poem form. How clever. Although I did a longer poem made up of five senryus.
Glad it worked out and impressed with the Drabble verse
πβ¨οΈ Mission accomplished, 100 words written.
Very nice indeed πππ¦π¦π¦
Oh this is very clever!
This is cool. A hundred words, thoughts well-expressed!
