"Except during the nascent stages of real humility, true love remains quiescent." By Poet

Fragmented Form: A rhyme form created by poetess: Constance La France

                        Calm and quiescent, yet restless and untamed,
            I realize contentment in this particular instance.
      Unruly and unbridled epiphany—feel unashamed,
Their routines are seamless of their existence.
                        Embedded in my core—words lie idle in my mind,
In an evanescent suffocation, downcast and confined.
Quiescent, craving liberty—eager to be divined,
      Regrouping with family upon shelter and care.
            Feeling fugacious, free to float forward and flare,
                        Words have become quiescent—in my dare.
My life has a secret vault in the back, framed,
            A sanctum, I retreat to unveil glee in assistance.
      My heart unlocks this hide—for who seek to find,
            This closet has a door for all who wish to share.

Speaks Volumes February 3, 2024 at 4:11 PM The rhyme and flow of the words lend to the beauty of this poem. A lazy, easy going feeling came over me as I read, it did not perplex me, it just seemed to relax me. Then the secret was mentioned, and my mind took me to the depth of your words, and I feel that you have opened the door to your deepest feelings through your unrivalled poetry.

Anne-Lise Andresen February 1, 2024 at 9:07 AM - Interesting "a secret vault" ... but, in my simple way of thinking ... we all have "a secret vault" ... it's not absolutely everything we tell each other ... just keeps the door slightly open at a time ... a fabulous poem, Las :) - A winning poem ... I'm sure :) - hugs

Victor Buhagiar February 1, 2024 at 8:13 AM An excellent poem and a bit of music that plays wonders on the heart with flutes and violins. A masterpiece.

Hiya Sharma February 1, 2024 at 4:04 AM Ah, such an intriguing and meaningful poem this is, dear Sotto.Your wordplay is absolutely profound and soulful, which explores the depth of how one's spirit finds soothe in a beautiful eden, homed in the heart, where inner peace embraces the life with philosophical insight. These lines truly reflect wisdom in the most thought-provoking way and also depicts the experiences of someone who has gone through those flavors of agony and hardships.A really brilliant poem, loved reading this, as always!

Silent One January 31, 2024 at 12:34 PM Dear Sotto.. poem beautifully captures the paradoxical nature of inner turmoil and external calm, inviting readers to explore the depths of the speaker's emotional landscape. The juxtaposition of "calm and quiescent" with "restless and untamed" sets the tone for a contemplation of inner conflict and outward composure. Your pen grapples with conflicting emotions, finding moments of contentment amidst the turmoil of your thoughts and feelings.

Ink Empress January 31, 2024 at 1:34 AM This is an interesting form, i would like to try too. But rhymes dont always come easy for me, for you this must be very easy. I love the light and soft manner youv woven words in this poem, so captivating and seamless. And the way youv expressed your longing to appreciate and see beyond all that which may be considered as obstacles is so profound and well delivered, i love the way youv written especially “ My life has a secret vault in the back, framed” so creative! And brilliant alliterations
