she dresses in sunlight and lace raiment once green now rose-gold hued thinning skin, her bones showing through facing eternity with grace raiment once green now rose-gold hued she dresses in sunlight and lace

And yet another treasure discovered in these 2 acre woods here under the shadow of Bramlett Mountain…a young sycamore tree, her leaves fading in this hot summer heat. More lessons to be gleaned from this natural wonderland I call home! Happy Saturday to you!
The Biolet
The biolet was invented by the Brazilian poet Filinto de Almeida and first appeared in print in his book Lyrica in 1887. It is a six line poem where the first two lines are repeated as the last two lines, however in reverse. The rhyme scheme is ABbaBA (with the capital letters representing the repeated lines). Most of Almeida’s original biolets in Portuguese were in iambic tetrameter (8 syllables), but you could also try iambic pentameter (10 syllables), iambic hexameter (12 syllables), and unmetered lines of random lengths as well.
I found this hollow hallowed loam while walking by the forest’s edge just beyond the blackberry hedge a place once used by fawning doe while walking by the forest’s edge I found this hollowed hallow loam
I paused a spell to take it in underneath the juniper tree space enough for two or three this shelter from the rain and wind underneath the juniper tree I paused a spell to take it in
when my soul’s in need of healing you might find me nestled here where kindred faerie folk and deer hiddled ‘neath the emerald ceiling you might find me nestled here when my soul’s in need of healing

I missed a day and had planned to stray a wee bit by expanding this one stanza 6-line micropoem to two…but then it was clear I needed three stanzas to give it proper due. At any rate this is a real place that I found last night while walking on the wood’s edge. What a find! I discover something new to fill my soul every day. I hope you too happen upon a treasure like this wherever you are. Miracles are everywhere! 😊 Peace to you!

don’t ask unless you want to know I’m over it…won’t over-share with busybodies who don’t care a pleasant “fine” is all they’re owed I’m over it…won’t over-share don’t ask unless you want to know

storms rarely come without warning a blustery wind, an angry glare thunder rolling, an icy stare chilled to bone, red sky at morning a blustery wind, an angry glare storms rarely come without warning
