Poetic form: reverse rhopalic verse
?
Wintersweet, by Suzette Richards - image generated 3 September 2024
a life’s work encapsulated in poetry
wisdom wrought through forgiveness and acceptance
bitter-sweet moments endured and embraced
the journal is nearing completion
it lies open in her gnarled hand
the old pencil stub, now blunt
gossamer petals of
the wintersweet drift
onto the page
its sweet scent
in the
air
