Intertwining Triolet
Combining two or more triolets linked by repeating lines. The sixth line of the first refrain forms the first line of the next refrain and so on.
.
It begins as a gentle breeze
rustles the leaves with its touch.
Scurrying through the tops of trees,
it begins as a gentle breeze.
Not enough to discourage bees,
it's only brisk; it isn't much.
It begins as a gentle breeze
rustles the leaves with its touch.
It's only brisk; it isn't much
until that breeze begins to gust.
And yet, birds still escape its clutch,
it's only brisk; it isn't much.
It topples garbage cans and such,
gathering up a cloud of dust.
It's only brisk; it isn't much,
until that breeze begins to gust.
Gathering up a cloud of dust;
it blocks the sun's diminished light.
And proceeds, with increasing thrust,
gathering up a cloud of dust.
As shutters squeak and hinges bust,
a furious gale gives folks flight.
Gathering up a cloud of dust;
it blocks the sun's diminished light.
A furious gale gives folks flight
as slate shingles fly through the air.
Morphing into objects of might,
a furious gale gives folks flight.
Finding cover all hang on tight,
for flying debris packs a scare.
A furious gale gives folks flight
as slate shingles fly through the air.
