Before the proof can disappear,
come see this precious flower bloom.
The world must know what I hold dear
for soon the proof shall disappear.
I must present my findings here.
He gave this bud to dull my gloom;
a vow, his love won't disappear.
Come see! My heart is in full bloom.
all it took was a little down time, i suppose. for here it is, as complete as it was meant to be. my original thoughts for a triolet (One Stop Poetry's Form Monday prompt) manage to finally bloom. i toyed a bit with the repeating lines (a bit more than my earlier attempt); i almost changed disappear in the second to last line to near, but after a bit more tinkering, i found a way to maintain that original word. i also would have preferred to use "wouldn't" in the second to last line, but i couldn't wrap my head around it only being counted as one syllable, so i went with "won't" instead.
Since I already posted up a triolet earlier for OSP Form Monday, this will make it way to OSP's One Shot Wednesday.
this is absolutely lovely! i don't have the courage to attempt a triolet. really enjoyed yours.

ReplyDeleteWonderful triolet. I think they are charming and it is good to step back from free verse now and again. And I liked how you changed it just slightly in the end to full bloom! Fun.
