Laughing angels dancing round burn fires
Drenched with youthful spirit and innocence
Life is a dream, in our small frames once lived
Imagination fueled young desires
Cowboys ‘n’ Indians, we played in pretense
By day-dream’s Never-land we are captive
Boisterous as chirping birds on a wire
Love and friendship we share in transparence
Being naughty or nice without motive
Trampoline jumping, higher and higher
Skirts raise and the boys stare with pure essence
“Girls wear weird shorts”- minds still uncorruptive
That age, care-free will I always admire
Day-dreams, laughs, tears… flickers from burn fires
Its about Trireme Sonnet tonight on dVerse and we have Samuel Peralta taking us through the motions 🙂
The Sonnet consists of four tercets (with rhyme scheme ABC-ABC-ABC-ABC), followed by a heroic couplet (with rhyme taken from one of the above tercet lines, AA, or BB, or CC).
Read more about it here: Form for All: On Midwinter, Magic Realism, and a Trireme Sonnet. Please feel free to join us at the bar 🙂
