Geoffrey Brewer Poet Triolet

May Bride of Spring

MAY BRIDE OF SPRING

May bride of Spring sheds shades of night
And dons a dress of Emerald green
Now winter’s chills are put to flight
May bride of Spring sheds shades of night
While humble Hawthorne blossoms bright
Like snow upon the hedge now seen
May bride of Spring sheds shades of night
And dons a dress of Emerald green

Suzanne Delaney May 24, 2019 at 3:10 PM Dear Geoffrey:Such a beautiful song of Spring. The form fits the theme to perfection. Into my Favs. today. SuZ Geoffrey Brewer May 26, 2019 at 9:33 AM Many thanks for your kind words. Suzanne

P.S. Awtry May 21, 2019 at 11:29 PM This is lovely! I have just read these two poems back to back and while this is a gorgeous triolet, you had to sacrifice some of your beautiful lines and bit of story from the original. Geoffrey Brewer May 22, 2019 at 1:50 AM Many thanks P.S. I think that both forms have their points - the inadvertent one I hit on has the potential of a nice rhyme and rhythm pattern. I may try it again under another name

Connie Marcum Wong May 16, 2019 at 4:43 AM This is gorgeous Geoffrey! Sorry you didn't get to enter it. I struggled with mine for a long time. I had never written a Triolet before. They are a challenge for me. Lovely! : ) Geoffrey Brewer May 22, 2019 at 1:46 AM Our first attempts at this attractive form! I think we may try again. Thanks for your kind comments, Connie.
