Kim Merryman Poet Triolet

Summer Celebration

Kaleidoscopic colors burst,

illuminating velvet skies.

Warm summer air ignites a thirst.

Kaleidoscopic colors burst,

while awestruck murmurs are disbursed,

and cannon booms cause babies cries.

Kaleidoscopic colors burst,

illuminating velvet skies.

Andrea Dietrich June 13, 2015 at 12:50 AM A really nice one for the fireworks picture, Kim! GREAT triolet meter and form. One tiny thing: babies' would have made it perfect! Congrats in my contest. Kim Merryman June 13, 2015 at 6:37 PM Thank you so much for my placement, Andrea! As I said in your blog, this was the first triolet I had written. Also, thanks for pointing out my punctuation error. I think I need a punctuation refresher course.
