I Still Miss You

Tina Stewart Brakebill

I see your face in the morning shadows

your lost voice echoing in the abyss

the memory sharp like a bramble rose

I see your face in the morning shadows

 

autumn’s gold curves in its final death throes

as fate and the future meet in a kiss  

I see your face in the morning shadows

your lost voice echoing in the abyss

Both the image and the prompt word (MISS) inspired the same feeling in me: a sense of loss. So, sorry for the melancholy, but I did enjoy the process! Thanks to the following: 

What do you see # 313- 3rd November’ 25
Today’s Prompt: Miss

Having fun with the Triolet this week. According to

https://bysarahwhiley.wordpress.com/

A Triolet is an 8-line poem where lines repeat in a beautiful rhythm:

Lines 1, 4, and 7 are the same, and lines 2 and 8 are also repeated.

The rhyme scheme looks like this: ABaAabAB (uppercase = repeated lines).

If you’d like to make it a little trickier, try writing each line with 8 syllables (iambic tetrameter, the classic French style) — or challenge yourself with 10 syllables per line (the English version). [I did 10-syllables today.]
