Melodic TRIOLETS...

Friday, February 16, 2018


Poem Artwork
REVENGE
A spited heart will often rail
In soulful vindication,
To recompense, or to assail,
A spited heart will often rail,
But till revenge completely fails
And one finds liberation,
A spited heart will often rail
In soulful vindication…
.
CEDING
There comes a time we must concede
When what we’ve done transgresses
No matter how we fight or plead
There comes a time we must concede
In spite of what a spirit freed
In life and love expresses,
There comes a time we must concede
When what we’ve done transgresses…
.
LIMITATIONS
In hopefulness we will succeed
Well past all limitations
As we pursue our holy creed
In hopefulness we will succeed
And if by chance we must concede
Our failures on occasion
In hopefulness we will succeed
Well past all limitations
.

I like the first two themes better than the last. They certainly did flow well and got their points across nicely.

You are a brave one to try such a difficult form, and succeed. I couldn't agree with you more on the bottom message, about courage.
We need to forge through no matter what. Especially in times when our lives demand it the most. Thank you for posting, and enriching my day, have a good one Richard, Blessings.

A very measured poem whose theme has insight and depth. The heart is a remarkable organ, as well as being in service to the mind, so that "words flow faithfully."

Well put. Your wordsmithing shines in this piece. Good work.
