TREASURED STILL<\/font><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Upon a shelf my toys still nest,
\nmy favorite bears and paper planes.
\nI still think that they\u2019re the best,
\nupon a shelf my toys still nest.
\nWe play each day and hardly rest,
\nsweet paper dolls and trucks and cranes.
\nUpon a shelf my toys still nest,
\nmy favorite bears and paper planes.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Childhood treasures cherished and loved,
\nno matter that they\u2019re tattered and worn;
\nWe still get together and have fun every day,
\nchildhood treasures cherished and loved.
\nMy favorite bears and paper planes,
\nplaying dress-up even if clothes are torn;
\nchildhood treasures cherished and loved
\nno matter that they\u2019re tattered and worn.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

According to ShadowPoetry.com:<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

“A Triolet is a poetic form consisting of only 8 lines.
\n<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

Within a Triolet, the 1st, 4th, and 7th lines repeat,
\n<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

and the 2nd and 8th lines do as well.
\n<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

The rhyme scheme is simple: ABaAabAB,<\/font> <\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

capital letters representing the repeated lines.”<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

I never do find the “forms” simple<\/font> but do at least enjoy trying them.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Thanks always for your visits and comments.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Big Hugs.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n
