Of Canvas and Creation



Poetic Bloomings Prompt; day 6. A few challenges today. Because it is Wednesday it is 'form' day. Todays's form is the Triolet.
 Triolet is an 8-line French verse form. Its rhyme scheme is ABaAabAB and all lines are in iambic tetrameter; the first, fourth and seventh lines are identical, as are the second and final lines, thereby making the initial and final couplets identical as well.
Today's prompt challenge: 
Compare a summer something with how it is like something else, and write a poem about it.



Each day is like a piece of art
Soon it will deck the halls of thought
Summer, what beauty you impart
Each day is like a piece of art
A masterpiece of earth and heart
Beneath a Hand of mercy wrought
Each day is like a piece of art
Soon it will deck the halls of thought
