Triolet

Triolet has refrains
 The first two lines ring out
 They bring it back again,
 There are rhyme schemes that flow,
 This is a French verse form
 That threads the lines with grace
 Then ends as it began

excellent job with this, joseph. I was thinking of doing Triolet, but I'd have to get this one out of my head so as not to replicate any of the lines. haha. or maybe I will try to do a different form.

A wonderful example on how to set up a "Triolet." I have never written one, but I have done this before.. it *ends as it began*. Thank you for sharing, Joseph. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy
