Way

I was alone on this planet of blue 'Til your pure love showed me the way What you stood for was so solid and true I was alone on this planet of blue But you wooed me until I said "I Do" No longer in my prime, I’m old and gray I was alone on this planet of blue 'Til your pure love showed me the way 04/22/2023 Contest: W Challenge Words Sponsor: Constance La France

The triolet, I think, is a very simple yet elegant poetic form. I've only managed it a couple of times. This is a fine example, Alexis.
