The Pitter-Patter of Drops

The pitter-patter of drops drum to the beat of a broken heart. As tears supply the rain and glum, the pitter-patter of drops drum. And we fear there is more to come, waiting for the sunshine to start. The pitter-patter of drops drum to the beat of a broken heart. Waiting for the sunshine to start, laughter can no longer be heard. We sense the mood gray clouds impart, waiting for the sunshine to start. And as our smiles slowly depart, we share the gloom without a word. Waiting for the sunshine to start, laughter can no longer be heard. We share the gloom without a word, watching the trees sway in the breeze. Tears, ensuring our views are blurred, we share the gloom without a word. And the softest sound ever heard morphs into silence, of unease. We share the gloom without a word, watching the trees sway in the breeze. (Intertwining Triolet) 1/22/2015

This is a fantastic Poem, Emile! These words have a heartbeat of their own, completely separate from the one mentioned in the poem. It is that life-like quality of good writing.

oh my, I usually identify triolets so easily, but because you were doing three together. I was thinking it sounded like kyrielle or something. You do form poetry very nicely. I sure enjoyed this.
