Missing You

i walk along the eastern shores stepping in the shadows of past as my footsteps fade beneath yours when scores of memories are cast stepping in the shadows of past to ease the pain of missing you when scores of memories are cast in salted tears and scarlet hue to ease the pain of missing you as my footsteps fade beneath yours in salted tears and scarlet hue i walk along the eastern shores 02/08/2020 Pantoum poetry contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier Theme I Miss You

Thank you so much Jennifer. If there is one thing I can convey through poetry it’s definitely the sadder emotions They just seem to entice my muse. Hugs

Beautifully written, Sandra. But, Line does not specify a Rhyming Pantoum just Pantoum. A plain Pantoum form ; abcd bedf dcfa .. same pattern except the other rhymes. You might want to ask her.. let me know if she does. hugs eve PS good luck in the contest.

Thank you Eve...I wrote her to ask her...I had written a couple for you in rhyme and when I looked on the definition on here it said traditionally they rhymed but they don't have to...I decided to go with rhyme...I will let you know what she says when she answers my message... hugs

Thank you Tom...I find the form difficult as well, Eve had written on how to compose them on her page so I wrote two for her contests... decided to try another for Line's though I still struggle with writing them... hugs
