Paulette Calasibetta Poet Rictameter

Rite of Passage

“The streams are in my veins”
                                   quote from the sponsor

Guided
Through the ages
Endowing the future
An heir aroused by sage wisdom
Ancestral blood pumps and streams through my veins
A pulsating rhythm from the heart
through life’s restless currents,
A destiny
Guided

Paulette Calasibetta August 7, 2022 at 10:21 AM Hi John, as always, I appreciate your poetic comments and praise. Rictameter is not a form I have done often, but I thought it worked with my subject. Happy Sunday,:) Paulette
