A violet flame burning in my blood
Spinning through the atoms of my body
Golden heart hides in lotus lily bud
A violet flame burning in my blood
Catching my dark lies in a flowing flood
Molecules sing an unsung melody
A violet flame burning in my blood
Spinning through the atoms of my body
This is an experimental symbolist triolet for One Shot Wednesday

nice…love the repitition…guard that flame that it burn eternal…nice one shot.
Thank you for your poem. It started to catch me in a rhythm. You cold make it longer so the rhythm of it could carry for a while. Nice experiment I’d say.
Thank you for the advice 🙂 I welcome it – I will certainly think about another poem/verse in Triolet for to extend the rhythm of this one.
Love, Love, LOVE this!
Nice one shot marousia
Very nice oneshot, Marousia. I really like the repeating refrain….it jells the thoughts and pushes the poem onward.

That’s what I love about One Shot. I learn something new every week. This is a new form for me. I liked it very much. It has a gentle beat that is captivating.
Intimate, effective work. Excellent.
