Impending Changes
**Quatern**A French form, four quatrain poem similar to the Kyrielle and the Retourne.
The first line repeats, each stanza in different locations! I like it because the refrain
adds depth and structure!
Impending Changes
Alluring, these pending changes
Everything could fall into place
This heart that has seen much patience
Still, there are steps I need to take
Achieve success, I can't rush fate!
Alluring, these pending changes,
Excitement slowing my heart rate.
Test my theory with vacation!
Paid time off gives motivation,
Decided, once the weather breaks!
Alluring, these pending changes
Tired of normal, I want great!
Stressed, searching for my happy place.
Different, in vision. Ambitious!
Lived to long in fear, my mistake,
Alluring, these pending changes!
