Sevenling (I believe)
I believe in goodness
the capacity to love
the power of compassion
in a world filled with
malice, hate and judgement
believing is not enough
living goodness, love, compassion is
~kat
The elements of the Sevenling are:
1. a heptastich, a poem in 7 lines made up of 2 tercets followed by a single line. metered at the discretion of the poet.
2. unrhymed.
4. composed with 3 complimentary images in the first tercet and 3 parallel images in the second tercet. The end line is a juxtaposed summary of the 2 parallels, a sort of “punchline”.
5. the poem should be titled “Sevenling: (first few words of poem).
