day 52

By Kat Myrman 
shifting

winter’s fading
melting away under the sun
winter’s fading
remnants of snow veiled in shading
linger, though the shift has begun
the days grow warm, spring’s soon to come 
winter’s fading

These days when it feels like there is never enough time (hence, this late daily posting), there is also the acknowledgement that time brings change, welcome change in the passing of one season to the next. Those in between seasons are my favorites. Autumn when the cooling temperatures bring a refreshing relief to the heat of summer and spring when the frigid cold of winters warms and a new cycle of life begins. There is hope in the in between. Dare I say “a glimmer”?!

Peace, love and warm glimmers to you!

Today we try our hand at the Rondelet. (You know I love a good refrain!). Here are the bones of a rondelet poem:

  • 7 lines
  • Lines 1, 3, and 7 are refrains
  • Refrain lines are 4 syllables long, other lines are 8 syllables
  • Rhyme scheme: AbAabbA
