Shielded Sight

Listen to poem:

Written: November 13, 2023 _________________________________________________ The waning sun brightens the skies. Love carries you home via meadows. She would have time to shield her eyes. The waning sun brightens the skies. While he was humming he stayed wise. Young swoons are playing with shadows. The waning sun brightens the skies. Love carries you home via meadows.

What a beautiful and soulful scene you’ve painted through this form of poetry, truly i am in awe of the way you’ve crafted this. I did write few triolets in the past, i am not a fan of refrains or repeating words but some poets like you are so talented and can make anything sound impeccable and beautiful for the readers eyes and soul, thats what you’ve done here especially with the line “ Young swoons are playing with shadows. The waning sun brightens the skie“ deeply moving and touching.love it
