The wind sings of your love to me. (Form:Kyrielle Sonnet)
Spirit Dance



I see you in the morning mist.
Wrapped in rainbow hues, you exist
in my heart where just my eyes see.
The wind sings of your love to me.

In the fading light, I succumb
to dreams of you that bid me come
and dance among the stars with thee.
The wind sings of your love to me.

In the night sky, a last embrace.
The morning sun cannot erase
this union that will always be.
The wind sings of your love to me.

I see you in the morning mist.
The wind sings of your love to me.


Notes
An entry in "N.A. First Peoples' Form Poetry ContestOpen in new Window. [13+]
Prompt: Image; Native American
Form: Kyrielle Sonnet
The Kyrielle Sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet). Just like the traditional Kyrielle poem, the Kyrielle Sonnet also has a repeating line or phrase as a refrain. Each line within the Kyrielle Sonnet consists of only eight syllables. French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning of the poem, so common practice is to use the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending couplet. This would also re-enforce the refrain within the poem. Therefore, a good rhyming scheme for a Kyrielle Sonnet would be: AabB, ccbB, ddbB, AB -or- AbaB, cbcB, dbdB, AB.

Thank you for taking time to read my words. I would appreciate it if you took a moment and left a comment. Your reaction, impressions, criticisms, - yes, even praise *Smile* - are all equally welcome.
