Emile Pinet Poet Triolet

The Pitter-Patter of Drops

The pitter-patter of drops drum,
like the beat of a soulful heart.
While raindrops leave you feeling glum,
the pitter-patter of drops: drum.
And I fear, there's more rain to come,
waiting for the sunshine to start.
The pitter-patter of drops drum,
like the beat of a soulful heart.

Waiting for the sunshine to start,
laughter can no longer be heard.
I sense the mood grey skies impart,
waiting for the sunshine to start.
And as our smiles slowly depart,
we share the gloom without a word.
Waiting for the sunshine to start,
laughter can no longer be heard.

We share the gloom without a word,
watching the trees sway in the breeze.
As the mist ensures views are blurred,
we share the gloom without a word.
And the softest sound ever heard;
morphs into silence, of unease.
We share the gloom without a word,
watching the trees sway in the breeze.

Isaiah Zerbst January 27, 2015 at 11:41 AM This is a fantastic Poem, Emile! These words have a heartbeat of their own, completely separate from the one mentioned in the poem. It is that life-like quality of good writing. Emile Pinet January 27, 2015 at 3:07 PM I stand humbled by your praise, thanks again. Emile.

Andrea Dietrich January 22, 2015 at 11:32 PM oh my, I usually identify triolets so easily, but because you were doing three together. I was thinking it sounded like kyrielle or something. You do form poetry very nicely. I sure enjoyed this. Emile Pinet January 23, 2015 at 7:57 AM Thanks Andrea, I like to mix it up at times. Emile.
