Whispering pines
bending low
wind calling softly
soothing sounds
moments reliving;
closing eyes,
remembering

- Your voice -

remembering,
eyes closing;
reliving moments
sounds soothing
softly calling wind
low bending
whispering pines

Palindrome Poetry - Also Known as Mirrored Poetry

A palindrome, by definition, is a word, phrase, verse, sentence, or even poem that reads the same forward or backward.  It stems from the Greek word palindromos: palin, meaning again, and dromos, meaning a running.  Combining the two together, the Greek meaning gives us, running back again...

Shown below are examples of the word-unit palindrome. The carefully placed words form the same sentence, whether it is read forward or backward.
For example, 'Mirrored images reflect images mirrored' which includes a word in the center as a reversal point for the sentence or even the poem.
