Quoth Theraven Poet Triolet

Open Armed

Layin down this heavy sword for a spell,
Dropping these rusty gauntlets of shame.
A shadow cast thought I knew so well.,
Layin down this heavy sword for a spell.
Open arms long for hugs, but who can tell..
Love left a heart broken yet whole again.
Layin down this heavy sword for a spell,
Dropping these rusty gauntlets of shame.

Mystic Rose Rose February 21, 2023 at 3:58 AM This triolet speaks volumes to me dear Quoth. The fact that you are whole again means that you can be a writer of golden quill, and you are, stay true to yourself, brilliant moth, :)

Aysha Nuwas February 20, 2023 at 10:30 PM I enjoyed reading this poem. Quoth Theraven February 22, 2023 at 3:53 PM Aysha, Thank you and welcome to PoetrySoup. Very rare to meet one that carries a spcial name meaning "prosperous" or "alive and well". I wish both for you. -Richard

Andrea Dietrich February 20, 2023 at 8:47 PM I always enjoy a good triolet, my friend. Quoth Theraven February 22, 2023 at 3:46 PM Andrea, Thanks, let me know when you've read one. Ha ha..! But seriously, I think they're difficult to write. -Richard
