Should I

Should I open wide my arms And let you in Or wrap them tight about my charms Should I open wide my arms Will these emotions set off alarms Is there something here we could begin Should I open wide my arms And let you in Brian Strand joice K contest 1st place :D

You've asked the tough questions so well within the framework of the poetic style. These are 'biggies!'

sometimes I am not sure where it comes from but I love being in tune with the muse and going with first thoughts that then flow into the whole. I'm so delighted you enjoyed my poem Eileen.

This can be a vulnerable thing sometimes. The form is very fitting.

A wonderful way to use the musicality of this triolet!

Thank you Kim...it's only the third time I have tried my hand at a triolet...like with the pantoum, you need to write what will flow as it is used again...the other efforts didn't go as well, lol
