A Triolet: NPM23 Day 18

One of the things I love most about #verselove is the opportunity to try new poetry formats and the stretch myself beyond my comfort zone. This is my first triolet, check the #verselove link above for more information.

Sea Reflections

when I look into the mirrored surface today

sea echoes in my ears and in the roll of the waves

in my eyes reflects every shade from teal to blue to steely gray

when I look into the mirrored surface today

whispers I hear in the outlines of egrets, whistles of shorebirds, briny tickle in my nose…it’s here I’m called to stay

my heart beats to the rhythm, nature’s melody rings clear, it is this wild wet place my soul craves

when I look into the the mirrored surface today

sea echoes in my ears and in the roll of the waves

    “It’s here I’m called to stay” is a loving line about your ocean, your safe place, your mirror.
