Tri-Con
Created by Connie Marcum Wong consisting of at least 4 three-line stanzas. Each line has no set meter or syllable count. The last word in each stanza must rhyme with the following Stanza and then you need to change your rhyming word again in the third stanza and so on.
Constance, my friend, like you, "I am a dreamer,"
treading on "the pathless path" of fate
tending to the "scars on my soul."
"Memories" have you "looking inward,"
writing "poems that take my breath away,"
lamenting how "rainy day blues" have levied their toll.
You've shown me "the beauty of morning dew,"
the "surreal," "unfathomable reverie"
of "dreamy places," and had me "flying with the birds."
"Sometimes" it feels like I'm "walking on broken glass,"
or "drowning" "in the deep, deep blue sea,"
when I hear "sorrow: like a lover," whisper such sad words.
Citing "the beauty in rain" and "the beauty of dusk."
you've shown me "grief is love with nowhere to go,"
and "I am one with the spirits in the sky."
"Saturated in solitude," "there is a dream place"
"filled with ebon veins" of "old thoughts,"
where "childhood memories" oft make you cry.
You are "a poet born from grief,"
broken into "a thousand beautiful pieces,"
trusting "love will heal the world."
And collecting all the "pieces to the puzzle,"
you swim against an "undercurrent of melancholy,"
to find both "love and woe" in the netherworld.
