West Virginia Coal Miners

Homeward bound in the evenings, weary miners cross the ridge Returning from the deep mines black as the coal they uncover Not far from the grandeur of the New River National Gorge Bridge Homeward bound in the evenings, weary miners cross the ridge Generations of these men have considered it a privilege To dig deep into the latest rich seams of coal they discover Homeward bound in the evenings, weary miners cross the ridge Returning from the deep mines black as the coal they uncover. written May 20, 2021

I may have to investigate the triolet. I have noticed that each poem I look up type for seem to be the triolet, all written by you. Well done!
