Sailing Ships

I sat alone upon the shore
watching ships sailing in the sky
White schooners flying in rapport
I sat alone upon the shore
listening to the ocean's roar
cumulous clouds were drifting by
I sat alone upon the shore
watching ships sailing in the sky

Terrell Martin Date: 8/20/2022 2:00:00 PM Jenna, I still have much to learn from yourself and others about forms like this one (a triolet?). But having spent the better part of a 20-year Naval career at sea I'm in love with the imagery and rhythm of this wonderful piece you've penned. Cheerios:) Login to Reply Jenna Logan Date: 8/21/2022 2:45:00 AM We all have much to learn from trying new forms, Terry. That's quite an impressive service history, so I thank you for honoring your country. I hope it's honored you. I appreciate your thoughtful review.

L Milton Hankins Date: 8/20/2022 10:18:00 AM Good one, Jenna. I really like triolets and write quite a few of them. Love your rhymes and your triolet really flows well. Good luck in the contest.
